[QUOTE="Trinkwasser, post: 38940, member: 11875"] One day you're going to die. However with sufficiently tight control you can probably put off the progression so that you die of something else first. Sorry I'm not helping much am I? <G> Seriously though there are an ever increasing number of diabetics who ARE bucking the odds and doing the opposite of what their medical professionals have predicted: they have improved many of their symptoms and their numbers and have not gone on insulin in three years: in fact there are many who have reduced or eliminated their meds (obviously Type 1s can't eliminate insulin but they can reduce it while maintaining excellent numbers) I think the record among people known to me is 25 years, aided by a low carb diet and loads of cycling: he still has A1c in the fives.
