I'm sorry but at this point I have to laugh but pls dont think its at you. But forget being told you may develop diabetes at some point and not be given any info. Because as most here will testify to once you are diagnosed diabetic you will still not be given any infomation . Atleast you have...

Yep and more besides and yes most of the symptoms went away or were alleviated after bringing bgs down . Its the bringing down of bgs that stop the symptoms and not the medication its self that only realy works to bring the bgs down and vicariously helps the symptoms. I still tend to wee quite...

Ok today I had to make a C.V in under 1 1/2 hours and get it sent off before the deadline for a new job I am after. I I dont get this one I will be looking for others. Now I know that there are some very intelligent and generous diabetics out there (GORVEL GROVEL) I was wondering if anyone would...

Been to see the nurse this morning . Over raprimil (kind confused as since starting them my bp has gone up???). She askec how I was getting along with the new sr met. I said that I was taking them all at once reather than 1 3x per day because the pharmaciset was concerned that he thouhgt...

Does any body have any experience of these . I beleive they are available in eithere shots that you take before a meal or as a onelce a week shot . I was wondering which works best as I would imagin the before meals one does. Am I also right in thinking that they are a synthetic version of...

Ok update time. I gave myself a full day off any metformin as my stomach felt yuck. So I started the sr version yesterday and my stomach is soooooooo much better but that being said I dont think it gives as good comtroll as normal met but atleast I dont feel as if I'm dreading the next dose . My...

Do you not wonder though . I know I do and to be fair at the moment I am realy struggling to see myself as diabetic. Not because I have difficulty comming to terms with it but just because of my reading . Ok I would perhaps be considered slightly on the high side for a non diabetic but I do now...

For me I find testing essential as it keeps me honest on the diet front and seeing tight controll encourages me to stay the course. I am still a relitive newbie although I do consider my self quite well educated about it now thanks to the forum and dr bernstein books. I do get them prescribed...

Just gone onto sr as unable to live with side affects.

The only way yo find out about kidneys is to have tests. As for the metformin and bgs I think I would be questioning diagnosis and wether or not its my Pancras kicking in and working and then shutting down and not . Unless you are truly abusing yourself diet wise by either starving and then...
