Thanks for the little calculator that make is a breeze. Im not questioning what numbers to use here i'm British and this is .CO.UK so of course we use British numbers. I tell all my US friends to come here as the info is so good and the help is second to none. Thanks for the great work...

Hi people, Being as the diabetic problem is a global problem it makes me wonder why different areas assign different number systems. In the UK 5 is not bad whereas in the USA 90 is deemed not bad. I admit after a few years it gets easier to convert but wish my meter did it automatically...

Soupladle, when it comes to ED type of stuff you will be amazed as to how complicated the sexual cycle becomes and how much psychology has an effect on the "performance" I am type 2 and have had some of the symptoms you are presenting. The hard part is working out what is the cause. You have to...

I don't think your partners idea is too bad. Its getting it to work will be the problem. Why wait for the government to do nothing when there is a great resource here. Why couldn't This site or its sponsors start a card. the card could be like a prepaid credit card say 2 or 3 quid, enough...

Oh and Viagra etc. seems to have little effect on my Blood sugar levels .... ;)

Use a soda stream and make your own non-sugar flavors!

My doctor rang me personally with my results, he probably knew better than go through the receptionist!! Nigel

I am actually embarrassed to admit I have not done any exercise. I know I would achieve better results and do plan on getting back to the gym. I used to run, row, weights and swim 4 - 6 times a week but my present situation wont allow that to happen. I am planning on returning to the USA near...

Nar then Laddy. Im actually from London originally. but yes I understand the moving goal posts with the eyes and focus. I just want to make sure nothing real bad is going on. like every one else I need my eyes !! Nigel

Cheers :) just one question, Does Diabetes fix everyone's eyesight? I had to wear glasses for driving/distance. I find now I don't need them, in fact they cause blurred vision! I have an appointment for the optician on Monday just to make sure nothing is wrong. Nigel
