i want to know how you feel, how it affects your life? what you can't do? does it make you feel different? does it put pressure on you? does it make you feel down? on the whole concept how does it make you feel. i want to hear it from someone real who can give me an insight as i am doing some research and i would really love to hear from someone with diabetes. anything you say will help me to understand more about what people go through. A couple of my family members have had it and i just would like to know more.

Hi-diabetes is a disease which affects every body system-I am in the medical field and I used to get very annoyed when my diabetic patients wouldnt adhere to their treatment regimes. Now the boot is on the other foot-I have the disease myself, and I feel resentful, particularly when other healthcare professionals tell me what to do! I KNOW what to do, it's just that sometimes its not so easy-especially when the newly qualified dietician or nurse or chiropodist tries to patronise me(they seem to think that those of us with diabetes are somehow lacking in intelligence-one chiropodist continually raised her voice at me and almost spoke in words of one syllable-what was all that about?).
With treatment like this is it any wonder that most of us HATE diabetic review clinics,suffer from depression occasionally, and have the odd fall from grace concerning diet? We're not automatons,and I for one,am fed up with other clinicians' attitudes to how I live my life. After all it is MY life, and having a disease does NOT give everyone the right to pry into affairs that have nothing to do with my medical treatment. Unfortunately in the UK we cant seem to separate medical treatment from snooping, in certain cases. Multi disciplinary working seems to give rise to shared unprofessionalism,and I fear that the NHS is rife with it these days.
You asked how I feel? This is only a small proportion of my feelings about having diabetes!!

Diabetics do have periphereal neuropathy (basically they can't feel pain). It's the main reason why they get foot infections and need amputations. However, it's not the only reason why someone can get periphereal neuropathy though it's a common cause. Diabetes Mellitus has several symptoms. Polyuria, polydipsia and polyfagia are very common. Nicturia (getting up at the middle of the night to pee) is also very common. You might not have Diabetes. Only a blood test will show what your glucose level is. However you should see a Neurologist to discard other serious diseases like Multiple Sclerosis.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Yeah if you let it affect your life it will The only thing I can't do is eat highcarbs. You have to learn how to eat I guess that could cause pressure on a person. Sometimes it makes you feel down I sometimes feel like something is always going wrong with me and its usually nothing small but you have to make yourself feel better. They have told me that diabetics get depression a lot easier that other healthy people. I have had this disease since I was 10 and then my daughter took it when she turned 11 you feel some disappointment but like my mom always said " look around you and you can always find someone worse off than you" and that works!

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 1991. I now control my diabetes with insulin pump therapy and feel much better. My sugar levels are much more controlled and my A1c is 6.6 now.
Upon my diagnosis I was angry and in denial but that didn't do much to help me feel better.
I do experience some anger now but for totally different reasons. I believe there is a viable cure for this disease but that curing us is not cost - effective. By keeping diabetics dependent on insulin the pharmaceutical companies stand to gain much more than if I no longer had to take daily medication.
