it makes me nervouse that i don't eat. i love eating, i'm just not hungry. i don't have belimea or anerexia or anything like that, but i almost always skip breakfast and lunch. i only eat dinner because i have to eat it with family. if i eat breakfast it would be a cup of cocoa or a small yogurt. lunch i only eat when i'm with my friends when they are buying lunches. i buy one too because i have the money and i have no reason not to. eating doesn't change the way i feel. i don't get full, i don't get more hungry, an di don't feel sick when i do eat. i just don't feel the need to eat. well, thats not completely true. i have an eating problem called hypoglocimia. it's the opposite of diabetes. most people with this have to make sure they always have food in them. i don't i ignore it exept when it gets bad, then i eat bread or cheese which makes the feeling of blood sugar drop go away. i don't know what this means or what i should do. help please?

Ok so ive been having this irritating pain and numbness in my legs, feet and hands. I wake up and it feels like my hands and feet are swollen but they arent. They itch like they are swelled up. My feet are the worst because they hurt when i touch them against anything. Kind of a sharp pain like you have when your running a fever and touch something cold. Ive had chest pain which my doctor has determined unofficially to be caused by stress. Both of my grandmothers had diabetes and so does my mom do you think this could be what this is. Im not losing any drastic weight or anything but i do have frequent infections and a very long healing time for any cuts I get. I use to get tested for this once a year but since everytime it came back negative i stopped getting tested 4 yrs ago. I read that insulin dependent diabetes comes at around age 30 and im going to be 27 this year. Its just bugging me to death. Any help or suggestions would be great and thanks in advance for any responses.

My mom has diabetes and I know she is not taking care of herself like she should. When she first found out (she was scared of dying, losing her eyesite, losing feet, etc...) she was so strict with her diet the doctor put her on and lost so much weight and looked good. Now she has the attitude that her medicine will take care of it. How can I get her to take care of herself like she was doing in the beginning? I know this sounds mean but is there any sites you all know of that has some seriously scary stuff (gruesome pictures would be a plus) on them about what can happen to you when you don't take care of your diabetes properly? Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated also.

I've just learned that diet sodas have an effect on blood sugar levels. I believe that it is primarily the caffeine that causes the reaction, however am not sure.
Also, will sparkling water (let's say with 1 carb per 8 ounce serving) work as the daily requirement for water intake?

Thanks in advance!

I have peripheral neuropathy ( numbness) in my feet. I am not a diabetic. I have had this now for 1 1/2 years. The 2 neuroligist I've been to do not know the cause. I've taken Neurontin and it really has been no help. Does anyony know of any kind of treatment program which might include some therapy like electronic stimulation and maybe a more effective drug. I am desperate. This is ruining my life.

I can tell when my blood sugar is low because I get dizzy and a little bit shaky, sometimes even when I'm not that hungary. What foods can I eat to get rid of this feeling and what else should I do? Does it mean I'm pre-diabetic?

Is anyone here taking Metformin, a brand name for Glucophage, and how has it helped your diabetes. Any side effects? I am just starting this med and I would like your feedback. Thanks.

I am not diabetic but I might be heading there based on how much my sugar swings. Has anybody in this type of situation been able to knock off that darn pad of belly fat? Last year at this time I was 12 lbs lighter.

I don't eat that much but my sugar goes up to the 130s and then crashes to the 80s and I'm guessing this is causing my fat to build up and not go away.

This seems to be simply from avoiding meat and eating fruit or honey and low-fat ice cream at times. I hardly eat any fat. But I'm getting fat anyway.

I eat whole-grain, low-carb, low-fat bread only and eat low-carb, low-sugar oatmeal and don't drink sodas. I'm careful.

What am I doing wrong? Something, apparently, b/c it's all being stored as fat. And my sugar should not go that high.

I am flying to florida in a few weeks and am having a bit of a nightmare deciding what to do with my insulin!!! I have contacted the sirline and informed them i will be carring needles and insulin and have a letter from my GP, I need to take 15 pens plus extras with me but if i leave them in their sealed boxes they will not fit into the clear plastic bag 20cms x 20cms that the airline say all liquids must be in. I have purchased two frio bags which will keep the insulin at the required temperature but these will not fit into the bag either. So do i put them in the frio bags and hope that they let me on the plane without the plastic bag, therefore keeping insulin cool for the whole journey, leave them in their sealed boxes or take them out and put the individual pens in the plastic bag and not keep them cool for the journey ??? help???
