[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 676076"] Let's go back to your original post [USER=136952]@aimee11[/USER] ................as the heading says I have 21 month old twin boys and I would say they were the answer to my prayers so I believe in prayers i have been diagnosed 2 years ago and am managing my blood sugar reasonably well - it hovers around 6 or 7 I use metformin the highest dose so just when do i start to feel better? less tired, less urgent urination? less aching all over? less pins and needles in my fingers and toes?less famished and starving hungry? i seem to be doing it all and being on a strict diet and denying myself little pleasures and snacks and do not see ANY benefit whatsoever except in the meter yes I know I am saving myself from long term complications but it seems that I am feeling just as unwell constantly any suggestions?--------------------- I feel it would be more productive for you if people could answer your original post. I do not understand why you are still experiencing symptoms and why you are starving hungry. and feel these are the problems that need to be addressed for you so that you can enjoy your life This thread seems to be going round in circles and I personally feel that you are angry with your diagnosis. If that is the case how about dealing with your anger and having a read through this article. [url]http://www.diabetesexplained.com/the-five-stages-of-grief.html[/url] There will be more research but as to when is like asking how long is a piece of string. Iin the meantime it would surely be better to focus on managing your diabetes. When and if the time comes that we were not to blame for this chronic condition is the time to celebrate but I would urge you not to focus on the negative portrayals as this will raise your blood pressure and stress levels and do nothing for your overall health.
