Avatar m tn Thanks. I had forgot about Alinia. Whats the time frame for pre-dosing? I am 6'0 and only weight 165 lbs so I guess ny BMI is fine. I do have diabetes so I don't know about the IR. I can't get an appointment until the 2nd of June so I have time to set my program. the best I can do is a nurse at the UMC here in Tucson and I have a feeling I will know about it than her. They may want to do a biopsy but I will pass on that.

My bf wants to put me under his insurance but I'm not sure they will approve because we are not married we are only engaged.
Avatar m tn Part of the problems we are having in this country, I believe, stems from the formal education we have, or don't have. Basically the public education system we have has not changed over the last century, so what changes would you make if you could and if added cost is involved how would you pay for it.
Avatar m tn Your first step should be to attend a diabetes education class -- a free one if your doctor can recommend. Gather some reading materials to learn what foods provide what level of carbs and refer to them often until you have developed a good system for yourself. Remember that exercise and weight loss (if necessary) are equally important to a good food regimen for controlling diabetes.
Avatar f tn Was diagnosed 4 years ago w/diabetes type 2. Went to all the classes, was put on Metformin and a couple other meds. Taught to check my blood sugar a couple times a day. Knew I had to lose weight, change to a healthier diet, and get exercise. Was noncompliant with education/meds/blood sugar monitoring/weight loss/exercise/dietary recommendations. Now I have swollen feet and I feel terrible. My feet became very swollen for the first time yesterday.
Avatar f tn Hi all, as a professional donating time here, I educate many people on OCD. Education is the first and basic step to knowledge and that helps to make OCD less of a mysterious monster. (Now it can be a known monster, smile). With that in mind, here are a few beginning and super basic OCD articles that anyone can start with and learn about the disorder.

Business man2 You can begin your diabetes education by reading, understanding and practicing what is put forth at these sites: http://www.diabetes.org/ http://diabetes.webmd.com/ Since you didn't provide us any information to work with, you can start by making lifestyle changes.

Avatar f tn t have personal experience with this one, but I work in health care. Is there a diabetes education clinic or group in your area? They can be very helpful in helping you control your sugar levels. Some women can control it with food but not all. That all depends on your results. Your Dr will give you guidance as far as if you need insulin or another medication. But it will be alright, you have a diagnoses and this is something that is treatable. Take care.
Avatar f tn But depression a problem. Sometimes, often really, crying. The Tucson mess has set off sobbing lasting forever. I can't mention out loud the problem without choking up and tears flowing. The stroke doing that to me?
Avatar f tn Consider reading Blood Sugar 101 online or another basic diabetes book. Diabetes education classes are also good IF they give you up to date information which is not always the case. There are many websites and much information online written by people who are successfully managing their diabetes. Remaining consistently over 250 is very dangerous and can lead to complications.
