We do not have type 2 diabetes as does 90% of the diabetic population. Type 2 is typically associated with diet and weight issues, though it also has a genetic component that is part of the cause. The effects of diabetes on the body, however, are about the same for type 1 and type 2 if good control is not maintained. The diet concerns, eating healthy foods in reasonable quantities, are the same. My answers: 1. 42 years 2. Some years yes, others no 3.

As far as insurance companies policies, presently you do not have hypertension nor are you a diabetic. Unless the questionnaire specifically ask if "have you been treated for XXX condition in the past", the honest answer would be yes. However, if the questionnaire asks if you are being "presently treated and/or under the care of a doctor for XXX condition", the honest answer is no.

Proper nutrition means to accentuate the positive when it comes to food. I dislike the word diet. “Diet” implies a rigorous, self-sacrificial discipline that’s doomed to fail. Instead, focus on achieving food goals of what you should eat each day rather than what you shouldn’t eat.

I concur completely with WaveRiders advice to you. I also want to reinforce her recommendation of Dreamfield's pasta. I am a diabetic and I love it, my wife is not diabetic and she loves the Dreamfield's. I serve it to my guest and they can't taste any differences. It cost a little more than regular pasta, but my and your health are worth the extra change.

t get rid of diabetes, but you can control it with a combination of proper diet, exercise and perhaps some oral medications if you are Type 2. You need to get much more information and perhaps meet with a diabetic educator to figure out what will work for you. Good luck. This disease can be managed with knowledge and proper attention.

my question is a type 2 diabetic person can feel weakness and lazy to do activities. thank you.

Ask your doctor to refer you to a diabetic dietician to help you understand about diet. The types of foods to avoid are those that are highly processed and have high quantities of sugar. Be aware that low fat foods do not necessarily mean low sugar. It is still very important to have a healthy and well balanced diet and to choose the types of foods that slowly release energy in your body. For example, sugar foods will spike your blood sugars very quickly and then drop very quickly.

Woww, you lucky to have found out this early in your pregnancy. I've had gestational diabettes, basically you need to take extra care of yourself and your eating habits. otherwise, not only will you feel real bad, your baby will suffer for it. Call your treating hospital and they will provide you with education on the subject. You can also google for more information.

Hi, thanks for the answer. I already had the thyroid test and I don't have any problem with that, is just the hiperinsulinim and the PCOs, and also I've already been treated with medication but my doctor said that I don't needed anymore.

So im going on wed to do my test to see if im diabetic. But thats all my doctor told me. I hear that you cant eat for so many hours before. How many hours before should I not eat and how do they do the test?

Can you clarify? You absolutely need to follow a diabetic diet, so there's no choice there. Are you on one you don't like? What is it you're looking for exactly?

T4 serum levels show normal (which do not indicate cellular thyroid function) Before this you may want to consider doing an adrenal questionnaire as a screening tool, which I can send you if interested,in the event you have not already done this. Thyroid dysfunction cannot be corrected before adrenal dysfunction is addressed-something conventional medical doctors do not normally pursue -as both adrenal and thyroid function get further impaired!
