[QUOTE="DelC1430, post: 1412233, member: 387318"] I need answer/advice asap. This is regarding my husband who's been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes years ago, and is now being treated with insulin. He also has back problems and taking pain medications. He drinks beer (like about 15 cans) 3 times a week. He is a chain smoker and can consume about 2 packs a day. He's 58 and surprisingly in good shape, on the outside. He complains about his back constantly and can't function without his naproxen. A month ago, he stopped taking his insulin because it's making him weak and lethargic. Now, he is active and can get mobility. The thing is, since stopping his insulin, his binge drinking increased. I am tempted to call his doctor, but he gets mad if I tell him that I will call his doctor. He doesn't take me with him whenever he has an appointment. Lately, he's been complaining about shooting pain on his shoulder. Please give me some advice on what to do. [/QUOTE]
