[QUOTE="Cat0409_, post: 1235938, member: 278469"] I have diabetes and I have had breast cancer . I have had 2 heart attacks, the second 5 days prior to my proposed breast cancer surgery. I was still in another hospital 80 kms away the day surgery was to take place. I had just been informed my diabetes was out of control and now needed MDI of insulin. 5 years later I am still on insulin but apparently quite low doses according to my specialist. I am OK according to the stress test I had earlier in the year. And I have never had surgery for my breast cancer and the last 3 mammograms have shown no sign of cancer. When I was first diagnosed as insulin dependant I low carbed without realizing what I was doing. Unfortunately due to a relationship breakdown my diabetes took last place in my life and my hba 1 c skyrocketed . I am now back low carbing have lost over 10 KGS my hba1c is better but not brilliant. But I am getting there and best of all I have a new partner who is extremely supportive. Life is full of ups and downs, all you can do is try to live for today and look to tomorrow. Death and taxes are inevitable so why worry about things you can't change, get on with the things you can change and keep trying [/QUOTE]
