Sorry to hear this. Try drinking lots of green tea (not the bottled stuff) and eat boiled cabbage. Believe it ot not, they truely work. My bro just went thru the same thing as you & is now doing great. He did the tea & cabbage thing along with eating right, etc. Will keep you in prayer. Hope you feel better soon!

I wish you luck on getting the sugar under control and can get back out here with the rest of us! Take care of yourself.

Dave,I was in a diabetic coma back in 1997,in hospital for 1 week,and after 1 month,of diet and meds,Dr took me off the insulin.
Stay away from all the starches and carbs.just do high protein foods,youll be better before you know it
Take care

Really sorry to hear that.

How's that going to work with the DOT, taking insulin but not being diagnose as a type one? Right?

Looks like you'll have to get off of those "Sweet" bikes and onto something not so sweet, say maybe a Ural T. Whatta' ya think?

Get better! Take care,

The nutritionist was what I was going to suggest - hope it works. It would be good if you can update us on how it goes, as far as the diet. :)

Keep us posted on your progress. There are many of us out there that are either in the same boat as you or headed down that road. Any help you can provide would be wonderful. Good luck to you.
