I'm half blind, I've got a bad right hip, arthritic knees and ankles, and I'm allergic to NSAIDs... So, yesterday, I thought I'd buy a bicycle and try to get some exercise. It started raining right when I put my old truck in gear... I took it as a sign from God

A good time I guess , them stories are more depressing then my 3 divorces. Well political correct is escort. That girlfriend experience will cost you alot more .Which usually where you end up after a few divorces. Rent a Marriage. Well i guess i'm sick of this bs , Lets try a forth marriage. By then , you should have obtained 100 country songs and a diploma by Comedy Central. A judgment letter from people who walk on water , with a closet full of skeletons , that would scare Steven King

Congratulations Steve! Yes, she's type 1. Been on insulin 60 years. Been on the pump about 30 years. Sensors, just recently. She never had a weight problem. She's all of 104 lbs. She fights it every day, like you.

Yes, you always have it but, weight loss does what insulin can't.
The medical profession wrongly believe insulin replacement is the answer. It's not low insulin it's that the body doesn't use insulin right. So you could shovel in all the insulin you like it won't go where it's needed.
Weight loss allows the body to use it and send around the body.
I never knew anything about it, until about 15 years ago, people were getting it like gangbusters.
I found my brother in law on the floor passed out in his house. Nobody answering the door, I found key under the mat. Walked in and saw him passed out.
My first ever encounter with it. I didn't know what was wrong but called 911.
Type 1 is genetic, type 2 is caused by being overweight.
Lose weight and immediately numbers improve.
My bro in law also has neuropathy.
Best to stay with it,good luck

Mine is mmol/L Woop Woop YAY! I haven't even bothered to check mine in quite some time now. However, I've certainty cut sugar/carbs/salt from my diet... And, I've recently found an adult "cruiser" bicycle with a seat that fits my 230lb ass. 230 is pretty good for me

The medical profession wrongly believe insulin replacement is the answer. It's not low insulin it's that the body doesn't use insulin right. So you could shovel in all the insulin you like it won't go where it's needed - Fde Yes weight loss and diet are important. But insulin is truly a wonder drug. My wife wouldn't have made it through her teenage years without it. She found out she had diabetes when she went into a coma, with a blood sugar of 1200. She's always been thin and watched her diet.
