One of the local TV stations ran a bit about a device for
constantly monitoring

Anyone going to be taking Byetta??? (www.byetta.com ) The new
injectable T2 med for those NOT in good control???   (My rx is already
called in, should be getting 'pen' within next two weeks.)
If so, I've started a new Byetta Support Group so we can 'share' this

So.  The orthopedist has no opinion as to whether diabetes is
causative in tendonitis.  Comments here will encourage me to take more
breaks from knitting and other repetitive tasks in future, however.

I'm having a little difficult sussing the meaning of C-peptide
numbers.  I understand that the "acceptable range" for each lab will

This current law provides that a pharmacist can provide syringes to

Last week and today I had a bad experience with my dentist. I would
like to get some other opinions before I persue action.
On Monday Oct 3 one of my bottom teeth became very painful and it felt

I have been reading that some nutritional supplements such as Bitter Melon,
Chromium, Zinc, and so on are good for bringing down glucose numbers.  I am
thinking of trying Bitter Melon. Has any one else had success with
supplements? I am open to suggestions and advice. Thank you.

My Endo has just given me a trail package of Symlin.  I have to take 3
injections a day, before meals, and it is claimed to lower the amount of
insulin I need, reduce the maximum blood sugar levels I reach, and MAY HELP
ME LOOSE WEIGHT.

Yolande, are you the same person as the one on the Hansard site who
mentioned doing the OU Living with Diabetes course? If so, what do you
reckon to it?

I have 2 boxes of BD 3/10 cc 28 gage U100 Syringes that I don't need.
One box has 100 syringes.  The second box has 2 ten packs left in it.
I don't like 28 gage since the needle is the size of a railroad spike

the flight. Is it ok to bring them on-board? Does she need ...
