    Music Music Music!

    If Blind Guardian, Iced Earth, Demons and Wizards, Hammerfall, Dragonland, Slayer or Daft Punk play nearby, I'll see them. :P They're my flavour of this month, mainly. :)

    Music Music Music!

    Hey there, I just started a thread asking about what music people liked, what flavour of the month they have etc. and then I see those. What a pain.. :P As stated in my forum, I'm more of a Heavy/Power/Speed/Epic Metal person, although I can enjoy other music very much as well! I've never...

    What are you listening to?

    What I'll do is name a few bands I like this week/month and give a little preview of their music. :) I haven't long discovered a band by the name of Blind Guardian, who are a huge inspiration to me, and many other bands for that matter. I find them amazing. Here are a few previews. :)...

    What are you listening to?

    Hey there, Just thought I might start this thread to get to know some more people better, which might help some people and also, just so our Diabetic Community might be closer? I chose music for this, as almost everybody listens to music quite a lot, myself included. Now, not everybody's...

    I Feel Pathetic.

    Hey all, Thank you for all your amazing replys, it's really helped and inspired me, and I think I'll be so much better off with all the help! I'm going to my appointment with my mum in about 2 1/2 hours, and I'm still dreading it, but hopefully it won't be too bad at all. Hopefully my weight...

    Hi, I have a weird question to ask

    I don't know if you've been drinking excess amounts of tea lately. My mum does, and her's comes out very dark coloured and smelly. lol As stated, it's probably the antibiotics. :)

    Not diagnosed son having test tomorrow

    Hey there, I don't know anything about the thrush, legs aching etc. My symptoms were extreme tiredness, thirstyness, itchy feet, memory loss (usually in the morning), dry throat, among other minor symptoms. Of course, the fact that your sisters sons have diabetes as well as your husband do...

    I Feel Pathetic.

    Hey, OK there are things I have missed. I can't remember when I was diagnosed, it was either 4 or 5 years ago. I've never been good at controlling it. Not good at all. I do my insulin and such, but I have always been dismal on the bloodtesting, in the fact that I just don't do many. For the...

    Heightened sense of smell?

    I hope you can identify those other two pills. :) If I were you I'd just go to your GP or call up a health line and ask if those pills can give any of those side-effects. Perhaps it tells you on the side of the pack?

    I Feel Pathetic.

    Hey guys, Thanks for all the help so far! I'm going to go to my appointment and tell them just how I feel and of all my worries. What I dread is my mum and dad shouting at me, and blaming me. They don't understand how hard it is. About last year my dad took away all my money that I made (I...

    What area is this available too? I'm guessing it's only available to a certain part of the country?

    I Feel Pathetic.

    Hey guys, Most of you won't remember me. I posted for some help sometime last year, or earlier this year, I can't remember. Anyway.. Recently I've been going to wrestling training, 2 times a week, for a total of 8 hours at least. It's very intense, and very active, which I'm actually very glad...

    Holiday to Thailand in April/May

    I know this may confuse you, but personally, the heat has never affected my Diabetes, and I can go anywhere I want without worrying about temperature. Any past experiences of problems with temperature?

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    Hi there Suzi, Thanks for the welcome, and I'm glad we could provide some insight just by talking to each other. :) I am sorry to hear that your son has Diabetes. It must not be easy for him. If you do one thing in his teenage years, please let it be this; Don't be harsh on him. :) My...

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    Roisin eh? An unfamiliar name, if I may say so myself. :) Good to meet you. I've had Diabetes since I was 10. I had itchy feet and I was very tired, need to pee a lot, was drinking a lot, and then one day I woke up, I was very pale, being sick all the time. Got to the doctors, my blood was...

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    Thanks for telling me I could either be great living or die early, Trink. lol Seriously, thank you though. :) I'm a boy, by the way, Rock. :) I only tell people if it is neccesary, so usually they are surprised to hear it. :)

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    ****, you lucky guy. :) I'm in 3rd year, I just have these un-important "revise-for-but-they-won't-do-anything" exams. lol My friends never udnerstand it, and I'm very thin, so they call me anorexic. :S

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    The exact same feeling comes from me, Kasbah. :) It can be VERY stressful sometimes, and I'm glad a place like this exists actively. I take it you means Year 6 of high school, where you will be doing your final exams? Anyway, ask around, and ask for help. :) I already know that this place is...

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    Hey Han, Thanks for the advice. :) I am very sorry to hear about one of your friends dieing. I may write like an intelligent person, and my grades in classes may be some of the highest in my year, almost as good as my social life, but I still find it surprisingly hard to control. I don't know...

    When will my legs fall off, also; A Cure?

    Ha, I'd like to think I'm doing very well, but remember - The tests I'm doing, may be good.. But they aren't regular. :( Ahh! That's a HbA1c! OK, my last one, which was in either December or Early January, I can't remember, was about 12.4, a drop after a couple of bad months, up from 10.2 or...
