5536886 tn?1455827346 I just heard about a program offered in a local hospital that is for the education of diabetes prevention- it looked really awesome! I'm thinking about checking it out further to see what information they have- do you have a program like this in your area? Have you checked it out and gotten any new information? Was it helpful for you?
Avatar f tn A family history of diabetes can result with a diabetes gene being passed to the next generation by one or both parents, in rare cases from the grandparents skipping a generation. The problem area lays with the actual genetic testing as it's still not fully comprehended or in place. In your case, Ruthie, if you wish further analysis I suggest you get your thyroid and pancreas checked. A malfunctioning thyroid will disrupt pancreas insulin production.
Avatar f tn I have read online that cutting out carbs is important for diabetes prevention, but carbs are a large part of my diet and I am pretty skinny already, so whenever I try to cut out carbs or cut down on carbs, I end up getting sick. Maybe it is coincidence, but I feel like it significantly impacts my immune system when I don't eat carbs. What should I do?
973741 tn?1342342773 So, when do you start worrying about diabetes prevention? Is there a certain age? Do you wait until things show on blood work to indicate it's time to start thinking about it? I guess a no brainer is to continually be aware of being a good weight and exercising regularly. But we hear about pre-diabetes. What exactly is that and when is it time for someone to make SURE they are doing what they need to do to prevent?
Avatar f tn It will take a combination of personal decisions and policy changes to turn the diabetes rate around. Making healthy food more accessible and implementing prevention programs will help, she said. One such program is the CDC's new National Diabetes Prevention Program, which aims to provide people with information about diabetes, promote lifestyle changes and reduce disparities between different groups.

Avatar f tn As far as reducing your risk for Type 2 Diabetes in general, whether you ave Hepatitis C or not, a healthy diet (fresh vegetables and fruits, lower fats, no fast food or junk food) and regular exercise are extremely important in Diabetes prevention.

Avatar n tn If you are predisposed to developing type 1 diabetes, no amount of exercise will change this. On the other hand, type 2 diabetes is linked with obesity, and exercise would definitely help with the prevention of that type. The hemoglobin A1C measures the average blood sugar level over a 3 month time period. This test is used by diabetics as a tool in keeping their blood glucose readings in control.

Avatar f tn We have a seperate forum for Diabetes type 2 and Diabetes prevention. Type 1 Diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas are destroyed, leading to high glucose levels in the blood and resulting in impaired metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It's sometimes referred to as insulin dependent diabetes.

Avatar n tn First off, congrats on stopping the beer guzzling and I'm glad you posted. Your glucose levels indicate you are pre-diabetic. If your fasting glucose level is 100 to 125 mg/dL, you have a form of pre-diabetes called impaired fasting glucose (IFG), meaning that you are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes but do not have it yet. A level of 126 mg/dL or above means that you have diabetes.
Business man2 This does not mean you can ignore lifestyle changes by going back to the bad habits which created your diabetes, it means you must adhere to a diabetic prevention lifestyle or it will return.
Avatar m tn In the US, the FDA approved Bydureon in January of 2012 for once weekly treatment for T2 Diabetes. Approved mid-2011 in Europe. It behooves the patient to read-up and take mental notes on Bydureon side effects. Not everyone has the same side effect reaction/s to medications, some less severe or none to others. "it will be a good alternative to other drugs." What alternative? What other drugs? This is from AMYLIN Pharmaceuticals, makers of Bydureon.

Avatar m tn I am from Western Europe. I will go straight to the point. Last October I had sex with a lady I did not know. We had a brief unproctected oral sex (I was the insertive) and then protected vaginal. Condom worked well as I think I would have notice any failure. No problems until a couple a weeks after, when I attended a STD prevention meetings at my Univ. I started to think I could have got syphilis from the oral encounter and to search for anything in my genitals.
