    Foot Pain

    Does anyone have any advice for pins and needles and numbness and generally uncomfortable feet? I use flexitol and foot cream, but keep getting soreness on the side of my big toe. I've changed my shoes to a wider style which has helped a little. Any advice or experiences is most welcome. It...

    Whats the most annoying thing people say about diabetes?

    I find 'politically correct' diabetics annoying. People always looking for an angle to take offence at something. Those and the 'demanding' people. I have diabetes so I'm going to be indignant and insist on being treated differently rather than get on with things and look after theirselves...

I wouldn't worry unduly over this as the insulin is absorbed by the tissue and eventually carried into the bloodstream. Unless it is more than a bead, I...

    the secret!

    Eating little makes your brain reserve energy and less reluctant to burn off excess fat in my opinion as your body will automatically defend itself against starvation.

    Anyone know about alert dogs?

    Thank you Paul. Nice to see someone with a bit of humanity and compassion, instead of control freaks. I appreciate your kind remarks. Three people on here, I hope you're pleased with your vile comments, PM's are so bold and not cowardly are they. You must feel brilliant about yourselves. You...
