Avatar n tn Hi Doctor, recently about 1 and half years diagnosed with type 1and a half diabetes and now on a pump. I went from hashimotos to lupus to diabetes to vitiligo. I'm getting episodes of low blood pressure 84/54 with foggy head/lightheaded as well. blood sugers are ok at this time but recently had a bad flu with 101 fever. always am dehydrated though I drink 6-8 bottles of water daily. What to do when these episodes happen???? Is there a specific test I should have done????
Avatar n tn Dear Merrymom, I am the mom of a 17 year old who was diagnosed at the age of 21 months. I am not a medical professional, so any information obtained should be verified with your daughter's healthcare team. Looking back on my daughter's diagnosis, I now wish that I had asserted myself more. She also had the same tests performed that your daughter has had done.
Avatar n tn Hi Dalki, Yes, in time your doctor will likely know for sure which type of diabetes you have. In addition to Type 1 and Type 2, there seems to be a type 1.5 ... tho' there's some thought that 1.5s are just in the early stages of Type 1. We DMers (folks with diabetes mellitis) and our docs often call that a honeymoon phase. I hope you're feeling better now that your bloodsugar has begun to come down. Things may remain volatile for a while, so try to be patient with yourself.
Avatar n tn herringv, I need to do some research to answer your question, so pls check back, too. Some medications seem to make us more (or less) sensitive to insulin; other meds can affect our appetites and interest in food at all. While I'm not a physician, what I know of most folks with Type 1 diabetes, it is not a disease that can go away without a transplant - and that's not an option for most (research will hopefully change that reality for us).
307500 tn?1302116146 Says because I have Clusters of AutoImmune Diseases I most likly have type 1 diabetes. This week He has run lost of test, blood, and heart tests and blood flow. I have been put on every poral pill and it hasn't dropped my BS. MY lst A1C was 7.0, I have been on a very low carb diet for yrs, I think if I weren't my BS would be alot higher all the time. My ? is could I be type 1 because of all the Auto disease and the age of 16 diagnoses?
Avatar n tn Between December 2002 and October 2005, 189 non-diabetic patients were treated with Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba, of whom five developed type 1 DM (2.6%), three type 2 DM (1.6%) and one an indeterminate type of DM. Classical symptoms of DM were present in three patients who developed DM shortly after cessation of Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba. In the other patients, symptoms of DM were either indistinguishable from side effects caused by Peg-IFN-alpha/Riba or absent.
Avatar n tn I also noted the JAMA reminder/caution that food does not cause Type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. This study and others looked at the impact of specific foods/timing of introduction in at-risk children. Please know that Type 2 is a completely different disease than Type 1. Type 1 is autoimmune, and researchers are striving to find out what triggers (or doesn't) trigger the disease. Type 2 has completely different origins.
Avatar f tn I have type 1 diabetes, and have had this challenging disease for 30 years. I am believing that I may be having the first signs of some nerve damage and am wondering what doctors/specialists I sure see. Right now I have a family practioner, and have had this same doctor for years....any suggestions on where to go next? I have excellent insurance (not always the case) and want to take care of this before the situation gets worse? Help.
Avatar n tn I know I am insulin dependent because I cannot take my pump off except for the rare few minutes or so without my sugar sky rocketing. Now would u still call this Type 2 Diabetes or Type 1? Hearing the words Juvenile Diabetes associated with Type 1 throws me off obviously because I was not diagnosed as a juvenile. But also the words Insulin Dependent are associated with the Type 1. So I DO fit into that category.
Avatar f tn I recently was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, will I ever be able to eat whatever I want again? If so, how long do you think that will be, I miss my chocolate!!
Avatar f tn Yes. Someone with type 1 diabetes must take insulin daily and monitor and control their blood sugars very well if they are to stay alive and avoid complications of diabetes.
Avatar m tn Does anyone have type 1 diabetes and notice that MS affects their blood sugars? For example has it med it harder for you to control, or does it start to go crazy before or during a flare? I am trying to see if maybe there is a pattern... If you feel that it does affect your sugars if you don't mind sharing how it does I would really appreciate it!
Avatar n tn You may try low carb eating, which is very helpful for blood sugar management. Type 1 grit is a group with great support and information on low carb eating for diabetes management. Look also into Dr. Richard Bernstein's Diabetes SOlutions book and Diabetes University (Utube), which has great and useful series of lectures on managing blood sugars. A CGM (continuous glucose monitoring device) can also be very useful, though frequent finger prick testing is also ok.
Avatar n tn I am a long distancer runner training for a marathon. I have lived with type 1 diabetes for thirteen years. I use the Bernstein dietary regimen and "exercise technique", which consists of eating small amounts of dextrose while running to compensate for the hypoglycemic effect of exercise. The aim is to keep blood sugar normal at all times. It works. Google "Bernstein diabetes" for the book.
Avatar n tn my young daughter has type 1 for 7 yrs she has some resistance too. they tried adding in an oral diabetes med on top of her insulin, that helped. exercise is good for reducing resistance and just being extra good with what you eat, go for stuff that is low G.I its a great way to help your blood sugars.
Avatar n tn My godchild is Type 1 Diabetic she is 5 years old and she is on humalog and protafyn. Her sugar spikes a lot then it is high in the 20 reading and then she is low. What is the cause of the spiking. She does not take any sugar onl 1 canderel tablet.
Avatar n tn You might also contact the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation at www.jdrf.org and click on the link to the left of the home page that is for the Online Diabetes Support Team (ODST). A page will appear where you can give some contact information and ask your question. They can put you in touch with the staff member who handles all questions of this sort and who has lots of information that may be helpful about where to go for help.
Avatar f tn Hello im 13 years old and i have type one diabetes and normally if i want to do exercise to help regulate my blood sugar i go jogging or biking but just make sure you dont overdo it because it may result in low blood sugar.
Avatar n tn I am 24 years old and have had type 1 diabetes since 1 1/2 years old. I have been on the insulin pump for 4 years now and have experienced much better control....still not where it could be, but way better prior to the pump. Recently I have found myself wondering what is wrong with my memory. I have trouble remembering most of my childhood or even events that happened months ago. I can only truly remember portions of conversations I have. My boyfriend tells me all the time....
Avatar n tn I was recently diagnosed with HSV2 and want to know what risks contracting it might pose for Type 1 Diabetic partner? The partner has had Type 1 for over 30 years, and manages it quite well, but has had some serious vision scares. Want to be in a relationship - taking all precautions - but he is dubious. Need some insight for some hope. In the Herpes Forum I was told and advised: "His diabetes isn't an issue.
