Avatar f tn 4)Your children will have an increased chance of developing diabetes in the future, but often this can be avoided with weight control, diet changes and good healthcare. But yes, there is increased risk. I hope this helps clear up some information/confusion. Your fiance has a good chance of doing just fine for many, many years. Take care and all the best to you both.
Avatar n tn 105 glucose) and is there a risk of 46 year old male developing diabetes in the future as result of exercising very hard at the above FIT level?Should person exercise at lower intensity(even though he can exercise at higher intensity) for prevention of developing diabetes in the future? Is there equation of calculating normal average glucose from hemoglobin a1c test?
Avatar f tn hey by the way i had warts they are going to prolly blame you for it if they develop any and the guilt is just overpowering and its always hard to tell after you slept with someone. All i can say is next time around i'm telling them so if they do develop a wart they were warned and there will be less guilt. Also its hard to know if a relationship is going to just be casual or develop into something more so if your a person who suffers from their conscience like me i guess I'd tell.
Avatar m tn An adult is responsible, honest and caring, but remember the little boy will always be in you and pop up from time to time. Find a great career or open your own business, im doing it and having a great time. Money does not bring happiness but it is a very secure feeling having some big bucks in the bank!

333672 tn?1273792789 I seem to be at odds with myself. I just moved across the country for a new job. I'm very much enjoying the new town and the new job. I'm meeting new people and making plans for pursuing personal and professional goals. I keep going forward as if I'm actually likely to achieve all these things. My body, on the other hand, just keeps going south. In the past five months I have seen my walking range decrease such that even short walks fill me with dread and anxiety.
Avatar m tn A newer generation of anti-psychotics, the glutamate antagonists in development will not cause diabetes or tardive dyskinesia and promotes a full recovery. I am on glycine a Phase II antipsychotic in FDA study that is a glutamate antagonist that has promoted a recovery that is according to my psychopharmocologist "as good as any FDA approved anti-psychotics or better". My study will be published soon in a psychiatric journal.

Avatar f tn What do I do if I can't remember if I gave myself my morning injection? Injection is 40 units.
Avatar f tn Incidentally, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about a year ago. At the time I was pregnant, I was told it was a window into my future, as about 40 percent will get type 2 diabetes later in life.
Avatar n tn Please suggest that she talk to her doctor about this, for any allergies should be noted in her medical records for the future. Allergy tests are fairly simple and can identify precisely what the triggers are.
1039200 tn?1314912008 Out of interest, can anyone tell me whether the link between atypical antipsychotics and diabetes is purely due to the extra weight gained? or do the drugs alter the way that the body metabolises carbohydrates - in other words is a normal/under weight person at risk of develop diabetes because of them? I'm not worrying about it, just curious that's all.
Avatar n tn There are many risks in being an insulin dependant diabetic and getting pregnant but many women do it and have healthy babies (me being one!) Studies have shown that effective control of diabetes during the periconceptional period (refers to the period of time three months before pregnancy through the first three months of pregnancy) in women with diabetes reduces the risk for birth defects in their children.
1542723 tn?1294447438 I think I am past that but there is a question that pops up often in my mind and that is what is the future of the stent:- 1. Assuming I limit the risk factors can stents last a lifetime, that is could I live to my expected average lifespan without needing CABG etc? 2. How long have stents been used and is there a body of patients who have had stents for decades and what is their present condition? 3. Is it possible to see ( by medication or diet ) regression in atherosclerosis? 4.
Avatar n tn Both type of diabetes are hereditary and also depends upon the levels of chance, to pass to the progeny. Some times the gene will be suppressed and the person carrying this suppressed gene becomes a career and passes it to the next filial generation. Any how take care of the diet properly.
Avatar n tn I have researched into the military and to my dismay have found because of Diabetes I cannot join the military. However, I was wondering if a cure were to be perfected, would the policy change or would I still be excluded?
Avatar n tn How do I handle these major spikes in the future?
Avatar f tn At the hospital we went to, scientists gave a little symposium about this big project and other facets of it, and about the state of diabetes research in general. I found this, and participation in the study, to be useful, in part because it put us in touch with some people doing cutting-edge work, it put us on their mailing lists, it put us on the list of people they'll contact for future studies, etc. It's a foot in the door.
Avatar n tn Hello, I have been reading a lot lately about the side effects of Seroquel. The one that concerns me the most is the diabetes. I am obese and diabetes runs in my family. I even have a brother that is insulin dependent. I am wondering if I should get off this drug? Does the diabetes continue even after the drug is discontinued? Is there another antipsychotic I could take that does not have this side effect? Thank you so much for your time.
Avatar m tn 878 I have had no side effects thus far and it is helping (possibly placebo...) with my ADHD. The additional serotonin of drugs like Ritalin/Vyvanse made coming off of them brutal in terms of depression. I am not prescribed nicotine gum for ADHD, it was just something I read about online 2 years back when I was struggling severing with ADHD at the beginning of graduate school.

1492438 tn?1288548287 Thus, the exact levels of AST and ALT cannot be used to determine the degree of liver disease or predict the future. These liver enzymes do not give an indication of the function of the liver. Sometimes they are mistakenly referred to as liver function tests or LFTs, but it is a misnomer. Please educate yourself on this disease so you can focus on what is really important. Like waiting for the new meds that will be on market hopefully next year. You have decades to find a cure.
Avatar n tn I would also like to pump insulin, but there's no possible way to pay for it or for the recurring monthly expenses. Perhaps in the future, you'll meet somebody who has health insurance or money. So keep your health intact as much as possible by keeping your BG under control. I recommend you read the book "Diabetes Solution" by Dr. Richard K. Bernstein. I also recommend you take up cross-country running to keep your weight under control.
