Hey there, I'm a type 1 diabetic and my sugar's have been a bit out of control for some odd reason lately but what's even more strange is that I've been having a lot more nightmares recently ever since they started to go out of control. My big Q is: Can Diabetes bring on or help more...

I was started on that when I was 1st diagnosed and yes I gained weight for a few years going from a size 34 up to a size 38 but then they put me on the novamix 50 insulin and I lost my weight and went back to size 34, so yes I think this insulin can make you gain weight but in order to not gain...

Well I'm type 1 and got diabetes when I was a teen and they told me that they would never give young people syringes and always give them pens with needles, so I guess your age varies the pen or syringe give .... even if you are afraid of needles or stabbing yourself with them

A hard choice as my Type 1 is a big part of my life now & even though it has both broken & fixed it for me, I'd still say hell yes I'd take that cure I may have only had it since 2002 but it has stopped me from getting and keeping jobs, as every time an employer finds out I'm diabetic they get...
