In trying to deal with my runny stomach problem, my Endo is trying me on
the same dosage (2000mg) of Metformin, but is switching me to the extended

hello people,
Of late is the practice of diabetologists to put newly discovered T1,
and T2 DM on low doses of aspirin. In the long run it controls the
damage to the kidneys caused by hyperglycemia.

I am a Type II. I have a question about performing my BG tests.
When I'm sticking my fingers, is there an affect on the numbers if I
stick myself on the ball of the front of the finger versus the side of

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought that the theory of insulin resistance
indicates that because the cells resist uptake of insulin, the system is
actually awash with said insulin as it is not doing anything and has nowhere
to go. When the oral route to control of diabetes is ...

I frequently lay awake thinking about my present condition. I realize I am
not the same happy carefree teenager I was before diagnosed. Then I was
always happy and smiling. Now I get the blues and feelings of hopelessness
almost every day. I never did that before, I never had ...
