I've had type2 with insulin for about 5 years. I also suffer with depression which I'm sure has a lot to do with it. I am so addicted to pepsi, chocolate and white bread!!!!! I just can't live without these things and sometimes even "binge". It's like a horrible secret in my life!!!
I don't know what to do!!!!! Logically, I know this is killing me but I can't help myself. The cravings are just too strong!!! I feel so desperate. I'm just being honest and trying to see if there is anyone out there experiencing something similar. Or is it just me?????? I've heard sugar cravings can be a part of diabetes but I didn't know these could take control of my life. I feel like a drug addict who's out of control!!!! Help!!!
Please only understanding answers- I beat myself up enough over this & it only makes things worse!!! I need some practical advice!!!

The doc is a gynecologist who also said that once a person has the virus and the symptoms disappear, it's impossible to detect whether or not it's still in the body. I'm skeptical, because I also read that 70% of women who have it are able to get rid of it on their immune system's own accord. But I'm worried about my friend who had HPV, because she doesn't use protection. I feel like something is wrong in the logic here, but I don't want to freak her out unnecessarily by bringing up something false.

My skin on my arms is bright red (raw looking) and hot to the touch for days-even weeks after prolonged sun exposure. Usually more on my left arm as I habitually have it on my window when driving long distances whereas my right arm is inside the vehicle. My question is this-how can a middle aged woman suddenly develop a sun allergy and who ever heard of such a thing? (unless you're born with it)

What will happen if I take two 24 hour allergy pills within one day?
Or if I take two different brands of allergy pills?

Will I just get drowsy? 'Cause I don't care...I just want my throat to stop itching for the night.

I just got home from training down at Fort Benning, Georgia with the Army.

I've been sick for about 6 weeks now. The doctors down there said my throat culture showed that I had Pharyngitis. Army healthcare down there kinda bites.. they only gave me Robitussin, Ibuprofin, and nasal spray.

So I went to my family physician back here at home and he believes it's allergies. He gave me Allegra-D and Nasonex.

I have this really scratchy-itchy feeling in the back of my throat and keep coughing VERY persistently--it won't go away. None of the medicine I've been taking (what's been given by the doctor, as well as Tylenol Cold and Sore Throat, and lozenges) have been helping with the cough. It's really annoying; I can't even open my mouth to speak without coughing up a storm. Any suggestions on what it is, and what I can do to improve my cough and condition? There's also a lot of fluid in my ears..
