    Who here is "awake" and has it helped you come to terms with

    Re: Who here is "awake" and has it helped you come to terms Hi, sorry, just noticed your reply. Yeah, I tend to meditate if I'm getting a bit worked up. High sugars can make me a bit stressed and stress makes my sugars high so I used to get locked into a vicious circle. Meditating for a while...

    Low Cholesterol and Stroke

    Tend to agree with the awesomely named fatbird. Look up the french paradox. They have the highest amount of saturated fat in their diet in Europe, yet have the highest life expectancy! Exercise also shows little to no evidence of assisting with health and longevity. Think of the number of gym...

    A question for those who were diagnosed in young stages

    Its hormones dude. I was dx'd type 1 when I was 11 and 13-19 was the worst for control. Girls, drinking, fitting in and the general mental shitstorm of being a teenager almost certainly had an impact on control. Consultants can be trigger happy with increasing doses etc and can conflict...

    Hypo after effects

    Thanks, I'll make a point of the omega 3 thing. It was savage, the clothes I had on were still soaking in the morning, literally, even my socks! Worst one in all my days! I am beginning to feel a bit sharper again, 10 days later! Will post in a few more days. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Hypo after effects

    Hi, I had an intensely bad experience with a night time hypo last week and haven't felt right since. I sat on my kitchen floor for an hour, I thought my sugars would never go back up! They did eventually but I've felt strangely disoriented since. Dizziness when I stand up too quick or turn round...

    Is marijuana good for diabetes?

    Or do they all do their drug runs out of the goodness of their heart to help humanity? :think: Not saying that at all, I was referring to the fact that anyone could grow the medicine, not that drug dealers are white Knights! There's not the profit for big pharma like other drugs!

    Who here is "awake" and has it helped you come to terms with

    Just wondering if straying from the flock has helped you spiritually in dealing with the rigors of diabetes? I personally feel that I now put less pressure on myself and that I'm not distracted as much from my personal responsibilities. Namaste Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Is marijuana good for diabetes?

    Well said littlewolf, very well put. And I agree totally with the cannabis v prescribed medication argument. Most of the reasons against cannabis are just psychological stereotypes based on nothing. Schizophrenia is as prevalent in general society as it is among cannabis users, to name but one...
