Diabetes

I don't get why people who have type 2 diabetes put off going on insulin as long as possible. Why? Don't they want medicine that will make them feel better?

I had my blood tested 1 year ago and my fasting blood sugar was 104. Certain foods trigger certain things in my body, greasy and starchy foods, make me extremely tired and worn out. Sugar tends to make my stomach very upset. And, sometimes after long periods of not eating I will get very dizzy and disoreintated. I do drink a lot of fluid but have always been like that, and I would say there are days I do go to the bathroom alot. I suffer from not being able to go go to the bathroom, constipation. Just wondering, or am I just worrying for nothing.

Person who have diabetes that suffer from Renal failure does that mean they let their diabetes get out of control. What about a person who keeps their numbers between 100 and 130 all the time will those numbers promote Renal failure, blindness or foot problems?

If doctors can rid diabetics of their diabetes by implanting islet cells into the liver of diabetics, then why can't my own cells be harvested, cloned, regenerated and then implanted into my body to rid myself of the diabetes? If this can be done, why don't I see any evidence of it?

Im 13 years old and i kind of think that i have diabetes. Im 5'2'' and weigh 116 pounds. I pee once in about 1-3 hours. and recently I lost 5 pounds and i cant explain why. I went to magic mountain the past day but i dont think that explains it. also my hand got weakened a few months ago for like 1 month. I couldn't write good in school sometimes( could be cause of my sitting position) I started exercising more and its gone. But now i read many articles about diabetes and i have a feeling i have diabetes. Please tell me.

Why is it when I test my blood sugar in the morning when I wake up, it's higher than it was the night before? I don't eat after I test it and I check it right when I wake up, and sometimes I get a reading that is 20 to 30 points higher. My dad says that his does the same thing.

Why is complete water-only fasting supposed to be bad for type 2 diabetics? I am 63 years old, and I have been diagnosed with diabetes for about 10 years. I am 5'9 and 245 pounds. Thirty years ago I fasted for 10 days and lost 25 pounds with absolutely no problems. (That is, no problems until I broke the fast with a cheeseburger -- instant nausea!) However, that was long before I became diabetic. Now I am supposed to take pills for my diabetes, but I have quit taking them because they drive my blood sugar way too low ... as low as 32! I would like to rapidly get rid of a lot of weight, and I am considering a long water-only fast. The conventional wisdom is that diabetics should not fast, but I can't find anything in the medical literature that supports that idea. On the contrary, there seem to be studies that show that diabetics have benefitted from fasting or from very low calorie diets. Does anybody have any knowledge or experience with fasting by non-insulin-dependent diabetics?
