My wife has type 2 diabetes. Can you please help us as to where we
might get good and reliable information on diet, etc. There is so
much misleading information it is hard to find good information
about what to do, etc. Need to know what to eat, how much, when,
etc. She has been to 2 doctors that thyroid and diabetes are  
supposed to be their specialty but all they tell her about diet is
to eat less. She does not eat much but has been swelled since a gall
blader operation 3 years ago. MRI of the abdomen shows nothing
unusual. Any information will be much appreciated. Thank you very
much for your time.

sadly, you can get better information from Charles Manson.  you're
asking
medical advise from a well-known QUACK! if you need help finding
information
call your insurance company or contact the ADA for more information.

best of luck to you .

Your doctor may be able to recommend a nutritionist. In addition, many
hosptials have diabetes programs for people like you. Your doctor may know
about it, but also look at the websites and call the hospitals.

Correct.

> Need to know what to eat, how much, when,  etc.

Any changes that she makes in either her diet or "way of eating"
should not adversely affect her appetite.

Hunger is a healthy appetite.

The hungriest people are the healthiest people.

Folks who are not hungry are dying.

Tragic Bob Pastorio, who remains in my prayers, would be an example of
the latter:

It is very likely that they are familiar with the 2PD-OMER Approach:

This Approach now comes with a million dollar guarantee and its free:

The modern American diet is essentially a type of long-term poisoning
resulting in obesity, heart disease, diabetes and some other maladies.

It's difficult enough for a person to change their eating habits without
subjecting themselves to hunger just for the sake of hunger.

You may find a sensible well researched body of information from Dr. Arthur
Agatston - he developed the "south beach diet" which is not another of these
brainless fad diets.

Use your local library and you'll find several books by him that you may
find to be sensible and helpful.

To the OP - "Dr" Chung is a well-known usenet lunatic.  Just Google his
name, and you'll find that he is a truly bizarre individual.  Among other
oddities, he has several time predicted the end of the world, and thinks
that he has been chosen by the Holy Spirit to play a special part in the
impending end of mankind.  His fascination with global death and destruction
are well documented in the archives.

Please seek out competent medical advice and don't pay attention to Chung.
He lost the only job he ever held in less than 3 months, and currently has
no practice and no admitting privileges at any hospitals.

Bob Pastorio remains a timely example of someone who has lost his
appetite thereby illustrating the anorexic effect of a terminal
illness.

"Hunger is good." -- Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Name-calling simply shows that you remain convicted by the Holy
Spirit:

Truth is bizarre to the untruthful such as yourself.

It remains my choice to refrain from either predicting or prophesying.

Indeed, GOD's purpose for me here remains to inform and not to
prophesy.

> , and thinks
> that he has been chosen by the Holy Spirit to play a special part in the

It remains my choice to continue to receive the guidance of the Holy
Spirit in everything I say, do, and write.

It remains my choice to joyfully look forward to GOD ushering in a new
heaven, new earth, and new Jerusalem.

Without the LORD, your wishes are meaningless (Ecclesiastes)...

... as are your fantasies... forever meaningless (Ecclesiastes).

May you wisely choose to surrender to GOD by publicly declaring with
your mouth that "Jesus is LORD:"

It saddens me to read that you are dying just as Bob is dying.

Both you and Bob Pastorio will remain in my prayers, dear neighbor
Gary whom I love unconditionally.

Tell us how you know people are "convicted" by some "holy spirit".

And don't chant - discuss it like an adult.

I don't think you have the courage to even try answering this question.

Here's another question for chunkers and his little Jesus friends:

If there is a God, wouldn't he more likely respect people who used their
God-given brains and had honest skepticism based on lack of evidence,
ubiquitous contradictions, and on
the bad acts performed in his name?

Logically, he would seek to punish those
who professed belief in him for selfish reasons of seeking better treatment
in an afterlife and ranting away condemning others -- perhaps he will even
make them the slaves of the more honest and worthy atheist
skeptics.

The Bible is full of various types of tests -- as a ranting Jesus monkey,
the afterlife you can look forward through is probably at the end of a leash
held by an atheist.

Two things to watch out for
1) Kmart:  They will NOT give you the cheap warfarin unless you insist
on it,  For some reason that I have never adequately had explained, they
will require your doctor to confirm it.  The non-discount price is
outrageous for stuff which costs pennies  per pound in bulk..  According
to them, it is some regulation of the Pharmacy Board, and applies to 4
drugs, 3 of whom not on the $15 list, but still cheaper than rack rate
if you insist
2) Sam's, WalMart:  Their pricing is NOT $4 for a month's supply, it is
$4 for 30 pills, so your "$4" scrip can cost you $8 or $12/month, much
more expensive than Express Scrips $20 for 3 months or KMart's $15 for
three months.  The druggist would not give me any info on any drug I
didn't have a scrip for, so it is possible that SOME drugs may not fall
under this rule.

Double check with your doctor. Some docs have prescription pads that
include a line that they can check if the generic is an acceptable
substitute. (If that line isn't checked, the pharmacist often
won't give the cheap stuff.) Even with drugs that don't have a generic
available yet (to my knowledge), I'll ask the doc to include that line
so that if the generic comes out, I'll get it without having to stay
alert to the patent dates.

http://i.walmart.com/i/if/hmp/fusion/genericdruglist.pdf gives the
Walmart formulary and has a "we reserve the right to fudge this" line.
It "Applies to up to a 30 day supply at commonly prescribed dosages"
which I assume means they will claim your twice a day (or three times
a day) dosage isn't the common use.

No, Maryland law REQUIRES use of generics unless the doctor specifies
(not checks a box), and, in any case, my doctors would NEVER specify a
branded, they would have to get permission from my Medicare part D provider.

In any case, Warfarin is not a patent drug.  The stuff have been around
for at least 50 years.

Varies according to state. In Pennsylvannia, unless the Dr.
specifically states otherwise, the Pharmacist is permitted by law to
substitute the generic product.

Ted,

My medicare drug plan uses express scripts and the so pays are much higher
than what you are quoting, eqalling 1/4 of the retail price at best adn
60% of the retail for me in the donut hole.   Before the Medicare plan we
did pay aobut $20 for a 2 month generic perscription and $40 for a
non-generic.  All diabetic meds were $5 for a 2 month scrip.  

To avoid the donut hole as long as I can, I now get my metformin and
aaryl(generic) at Kmart for $15 for 3 months  and wll be getting my
Lipitor in 40 mg pills which cost the same per pill as the 20 mg Lipitor
and I will just split them.

Please do not ask Chung for advice, he is both unemployed and
unemployable. The only post he has ever held in medicine was for some 80
days or so, from whih he was dismissed with cause and left the state
under a cloud.

Buy a clue and don't respond to him.  As for the how much and when to eat,
this is something she will need to figure out for herself.  If she had a
gallbladder operation then she would need to eat a low fat diet.

Asking for advise from Dr.(???) Chung over the internet is like kissing a
cactus. Everyone thinks you look stupid doing it and you'll likely hurt
yourself in the process.

See your doctor for real info.
