diabetes

Hi all. I am new here and basically looking for a sounding board. I don't know what to ask/tell my doctors, or what kind of doctor I should possibly be seeing so I guess I'm looking for guidance in those areas. I really feel like there is possibly something wrong with my health. I cringe...

One of the many known benefits of tea is it's ability to lower blood sugar. Good for those who suffer from diabetes and others who over indulge, but for the rest of us not so much. My sugar consumption is so low anyway that if I drink too much tea (3 cups in 2 hours say) then my blood sugar...

Hi everyone. Very thankful I have found this forum. Just a little history on me. I was diagnosed with FM in February of this year. Shortly after that came the diagnosis of CFS and IBS. I was off work before I was diagnosed and was forced to return to work. My doctor took me off work again in...

Hi, I'm Peg and I was diagnosed several years ago. I also have diabetes related neuropathy, sleep apnea, psoriasis, and arthritis. I am a widow (lost my husband of 34 years last January to cancer) and I live with my 23 year old son who has high functioning autism. So you can imagine that my life...
