Geethika - how is it 'up to them'? How do they 'get out of it' as you so blithely say? Not everyone has options, some people are not fortunate enough to be surrounded by loving and caring family and friends. You have obviously never sufferred in your life, lucky you, but please don't blame...

I would suggest this phenomenon is very rare indeed. In fact my own experience tells me that the opposite situation is the norm - i.e., gross underdosing of Type 1 Diabetics. When at the ************* Hospital Swindon a year ago my blood sugar was kept over 20 most of the time and nothing I...

Hi again Emily Hope you will keep us posted about your progress with SIBA Regards George

in your Skoda

Woweee Ardbeg, that's wonderful, clearly Timo2's optimism has proved true. Please find my £1 enclosed in the form of share certificates in Enron. Please keep any change George

Thanks for the repsonse folks! Brekky, I try to cut out fat, that's all, like Jack Spratt. Low fat spread, etc etc as you know I'm sure. I like grapefruits as well which I believe helps. Basically all the usual cliches, fruit and nuts and fish etc. Fortunately I have always loved such...

Sorry to hear of your troubles Laura. I have to agree with Dobbs about tight bg control but easier said than done. We have to walk that tightrope to survive these problems. I have had Type 1 for 57 years, high dose, and had not many complications so am mostly lucky, especially if you...

Cheers, Timo2. Yeah, fascinating no doubt. Interesting that the Beeb etc have finally seen through all these 'cures' and no longer even bother to report them. If you think such a 'cure' will ever be offerred to you or I, don't hold your breath will you. George

Hello Emily. Hope you find this forum useful. I have and I only joined last week. Interesting about your new insulin; sounds like you are in process of getting dosage right, it's a bore, isn't it? Hypos can be terrible things, you can do yourself some bad damage when you're having them...

Come, come. The whole darn lot of them are a bunch of comedians!

he sold it

LOL, thanks a mill for that JP1980! One of the very best of W's gems. That's cheered me up!

Synonym - sorry, I meant to say, last message. I clicked my profile as you say but cant see how to ammend the figure. Not to worry, the length of time I've had it is no source of pride to me. I curse my mother for giving me it but c'est la vie Love George

Hi Totsy, and thankyou all. CarbsRok, I very carefully watch sugar intake but have never understood how you can "count carbs". An orange contains x ammount of carbs? But you can get a tiny orange or a ginormous one. I just usually have a good idea how much sugar there is in something, so...

Not any more I don't, Timo. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me George

Hi, Noblehead. But, don't be fooled: I am a 100% bore and I have the stificate to prove it. Proud to be a bore, too, after all any fool can have a personality, to be as grey and dead as me takes expertise Hi Synonim. Don't get you unfortunately. I was diagnosed type one in 1953. As...

One of the most amusing news stories which I always look forward to - you know, along with the "Little girl/boy saves diabetic mums/dads life" one, is the DIABETES IS CURED story. It usually comes around once or twice a year and the next one is now overdue. I love them and the sheer sincerety...

Yup, here I is folks, the long wait is over and your patience is now rewarded! You lucky, lucky people! Well, that's my line anyway and if I'm actually as down as a labour party pollster I am keeping that to myself! Type 1 diabetic for 57 years, had laser eye surgery in one eye and a heart...
