Answer 1

FIGHT IT!!!! Don't let it beat you or get you down. Consider it a challenge and prove that you can beat anything. What doesn't kill you will just make you stronger.

Answer 2

i am a doctor
listen the details you have given are not suficient for me
but i may add that you should meet up your doctor
for the para diabetic treatment like exercise, diet control
it may help
and i know ppl who have controlled diabetes just by that

though i need to say friend
if you are not getting better, you have to fight it with all the determination you can gather
join a local diabetic support group
you will ned it to beat the stresses an the despair of the disease
and do not despair cause i you stop fighting the disease will raise
its ugly head in more forms than u can think of
again talk to your doc or research " complications of diabetes"
it may keep you motivated
best of luck yo u friend

Hi Kid! I.m 66 y.o., diagnosed as a Type 2 Diabetic*, and a grandfather. The younger of my two sons was also diagnosed as a * when he was just 10 years old. But that was only after I insisted/persisted with our family doctor that my son had all the symptoms of a diabetic. My boy is now 30 y.o.; he follows his diabetic regime very strictly. He doesn't drink anything alcoholic. Also, both my son and I are non-smokers.

Myself, I take regular prescribed medication for my diabetes (as well as for high blood cholesterol and gastric ulcers). My dietary needs are very simple. I eat a lot of fish and white meat, some veggies, but very liitle red meat altho I dearly love steak. I don't really exercise altho I'm 5'5' and weigh 155 lbs. I do have what they call middle-age spread!

I also happen to love hard liquor, I won't deny that. Who am i kidding but I'm probably an alcoholic. I must have my daily intake of at least 6 ozs. of Scotch Whiskey ( the only drink I take). This is a habit ingrained over 40 years. My way of life has not (yet) caused me any difficulties physically. Of course I'm not as young and active as I used to be but I still love and greatly enjoy sex, for example!

So what can I tell you, young feller? I decided to disclose as much as possible about myself in the hope that it could somehow benefit other readers as well. I'm an exception to the rule of how diabetics should conduct themselves. On the other hand, my son is much more sensible than I am and he strictly practises the standard, prescribed behavior for a diabetic.

It seems to me that you inherited diabetes. Your Mom must have been fairly young when she passed on, but did she die because of diabetes? Does diabetes run in your family? What about your father and your siblings?

Foolish as my conduct has been in trivializing my own diabetic condition I urge you young man, to seriously consider and address your own obviously diabetic condition – 3 blood tests should prove it. You are very young and you have a full life ahead of you. Have you discussed this matter with your Dad and/or your siblings or any of your relatives?

If you feel I could be of help in any way I'd be very happy to do so. Please send me a message and I'll respond.

You have a high sugar blood concentration and a lost of member of your family. I am sorry for that. but Sweety, you have to look forward. Siting and sobing over the present will not help. Look into your futur and live on. There must be something you can do to improve your health condition. The result cannot be perfect by claping your hands in 1 instant. It takes patience and determination. Good luck!

Answer 5

iya,
So sorry for your loss.
My fiance has type II so I was watching a tv show called dlife one day. It's about diabetes. They had a guest on who is a young rapper, I can't remember his name, but that doesn't matter. You could probably read about it on their web site if you wanted to. He had found out that he has diabetes and he didn't want to deal with, just like you. He said he ate junk food, lots of chips and treats, just pretending like he didn't have diabetes.
Now he is on dialasys and is on the kidney and pancreas transplant lists. He wishes he had eaten better when he still had a chance. I know you don't want to be on those lists. I also know that your mother wouldn't want you to be on those lists. I know that because I'm a mother, too.
Take care of yourself. Is there someone who will help you with a meal plan? You can go to diabetes health connection.com for help with meal plans, too.
I can only imagine how difficult this time is for you and again, I'm sorry you have to go through this, but take care of your diabetes. You will be glad you did.
Good luck, iya.
Smiles, Fairy
