This is the pneumonia vaccine that is recommended as routine for those age 50+ or persons age 2 or older with certain chronic conditions or in certain environmental or social situations...
Usually only one dose of this vaccine is needed, except under certain cicumstances such as:
A second dose is recommended for people 65 years and older who got their first dose when they were younger than 65 and it has been 5 or more years since the first dose.
They develop in both men and women as they grow older and most often found in the skin folds (neck, armpits, groin). They also tend to be more numerous in obese persons and in those with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Skin tags are made up of loosely arranged collagen fibers and blood vessels surrounded by a thickened or thinned-out epidermis.
This is not a question but a comment (forgive me, I am new to this forum.) I tried to comment on this, but it keeps taking me to the question section.
For the person whose uncle was diagnosed at 73 with Cystic Fibrosis: believe it, and help him buy a juicer.
He has a mild case and different mutation (may not have even been documented yet.)
Carrot/orange or carrot/apple at least twice a day and he will be ok, with the strong antibiotics that are now
available.
Helen,
I would go back to the doctor already to be seen and not wait the five days. Wound management in persons with diabetes is critical to prevent complications.
The treatment if the wound should be very agressive to make sure this heals.
Please also work hard to control your blood sugar very well (ideally below 140 at all times), to help the healing process.
Let us know how you go.
My three year old son drinks a lot, uses the restroom quite frequently, and says he's really tired a lot here recently. What is a normal blood sugar for someone his age? And could he possibly have diabetes? He has a family history of both type 1 & 2 diabetes on both sides. He isn't losing any weight and plays as normal.
ADA also recommends HBA1C of 7 as acceptable for persons with diabetes, which is nearly double of non-diabetics, who will have a HBA1C in the range of 4.3- 4.6.
However, with blood sugars of 180 (and if that is the average it means the person also has much higher sugars as well) it is guaranteed that there will eventually be diabetic complications.
soup and lime including skin), many persons see significant result in couple days and many of them claimed stopped medicine after few weeks.
My personal think this method is no hurt to try, just try couple days and check your blood sugar and see what happened.
Method 2: massage stomach area 20 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes before sleep. The person posted this method has Diabetic type 1 and now he claimed complete recovered.
As you know your diabetes condition could affect other organs in your body. If you are in any doubt see your G.P, and investigate.
The kidneys primary function is to maintain the fluid balance in the body and to excrete unwanted soluble chemicals. Whilst doing this the kidney conserves other important constituents circulating in the blood stream.
Healthy people do pass small amounts of protein in the urine, if an elevated level is detected this should be investigated by your G.P.
So I was just diagnosed with gestational diabetes today. I've never been a diabetic before I got pregnant, but it does run in my family. What can I eat. And do I have to give up on foods I crave like I do crave sweets. Also will my baby be ok ?
Pravachol (pravastin sodium) does not ALWAYS cause diabetes. The drug, however has a number of possible serious side affects. A discussion of these may be found on the United States government website for the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Go to their site and type in "pravachol" on their internal document search engine.
i would like to gain weight,i used to have alot of weight while in high skool but wen i finished,my body reduced drastically,i now weigh 56kg ,i hate my weight,i would like to weigh 65-70kg,please help me.
s research team may decide to only study persons with infection known to be present 3 months or more. The test may in fact detect everyone infected for 6 weeks or even less. But since they have only studied those infected for 3 months or more, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires them to say a negative result may not be reliable until 3 months have passed.
For the antibody tests, the last issue is the most confusing.
Hi,
Truely normal blood sugar in adults will be close to 83 and will not vary much at all from this point, and definitely under 100 nearly all the time. In children it may be a bit lower, but probably not lower than 70.
Fasting levels 99 - 125 are considered prediabetic
Fasting levels > 126 are considered diabetic.
2 hours after eating numbers should not be above 120, and numbers above 140 will be considered diabetic.
The percentage of people ages 65 and older with diabetes is expected to increase; it was 12.4 percent in 2000, but will be 19.6 percent in 2030, Albright said.
"We're living longer, but Type 2 diabetes does get more prevalent as you age," she said. "The body's ability to use insulin does gradually decline, but that can be slowed by maintenance, diet and regular physical activity.
Type 1(juvenile) diabetes is most often diagnosed in childhood, but young adults and seniors can develop type 1 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the persons pancreas stops producing insulin, resulting in the rise of blood sugar. Because Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmunine disease (like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis), the person's own immune system destroys the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas. More than 1 million Americans have Type 1 diabetes, for which there is no cure.
this is different from the official recommendations, that say that 6.5 - 7.0 is ok for persons with diabetes.
However, levels of 6.5 - 7.0 will result in diabetic complications over time.
How to normalize blood sugars:
- Lowcarb diet (Paleo / keto/ modified atkins,)
- Weight management
- exercise
- medications, if necessary and levels cannot be normalized with the first 3 approaches.
