| Blood sugars up/blood sugars down | 25 Jul 2008 04:14 GMT | 40 |
I am relatively new at all of this, but it's amazing to me what makes a blood glucose level go up and what keeps it steady. I had "burgers" for dinner with onions and mushrooms and a few new potatoes (the really small ones). My blood sugar was 80 two hours after. The burgers

I had a discussion with the diabetes educator today. She's probably as proactive as they come. She has a passion for all things diabetes. And, more importantly, I trust her. I talked to her about the 1 hour versus 2 hour versus 1 hour and 2 hour

| Visinopril and Coughing | 25 Jul 2008 03:34 GMT | 33 |
I've been taking Visinopril for over two months, and during that time I've had a dry cough. It is SO ANNOYING, and totally non productive. It seems the second I try to sleep the coughing starts. I keep cloraseptic by my bed so I can numb my throat and stop the terrible tickle ...

Right before lunch at noon, I was at 111. At 1:30, I was 121 and I felt fine. I had string cheese and a few peanut M&M's. I just checked it an hour later at 2:30 and it is now 75. I am sooo tired. I am at work and want to put my head down. If it is is still in the normal

| Is diabetes curable or controllable? | 25 Jul 2008 02:38 GMT | 8 |
I only ask as since I have been exercising, my numbers have been much lower. If I stop exercising for say, a week or two, will they go back up? Can I get rid of diabetes altogether? Or just control it? Cindy

| Getting better and gaining gound every day | 25 Jul 2008 02:36 GMT | 4 |
I thought I would let you know of my progress since getting home from the hospital. Tuesday I went to the surgeon for (hopefully) the last time. His nurse removed the remaining staples. Laurie said it looked like about 35. Some of them hurt a little bit. The nurse said, "Those

Thought this might be of interest:- http://www.tescodiets.com/index.cfm?currpage=contact&subsection=contact&code=350144 their suggested "diabetic diet" is so appalling that many members of diabetes-support.org.uk have written to their dietitian protesting.

| Niacin Woes | 24 Jul 2008 22:48 GMT | 7 |
I read about the flush but.... wow... I wasn't expecting that. The first time I tried Niacin, we were driving in the car about 15 minutes later (thankfully, I was the passenger geeking out with the GPS in my wife's new iPhone 3G) and I freaked. I just sat there wondering

I work in an office and am surrounded by others (Attorneys, secretarys, clients) all day. I don't have a cubicle so I can't test at my desk. The restroom is on another floor. We do have a small kitchen type thing up here, but everyone uses that quite often. Where
