Very good answers, honney bunny. Funny too, you should ask about Diabetes with a name like yours> "Diabetes" in Latin means, "honey-urine disease." I've had Diabetes now for nearly 40 years. The symptoms given to you were all correct. There are many conditions though that can cause a pain in your side. make note of anything else that's feeling different in your body & go to the doctor right away for a check up.

If you happen to have a Diabetes diagnosis, know that it's not the end of the world. There is life after the diagnosis of a chronic disease. You took the first step by asking questions. Now, ask questions of a medical professional!


Best to you.

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.

Pancreas pain is usually RT sided as the pancreas is located on the RT side of the body. The gallbladder is also RT sided. Just because family members have diabetes doesn't mean you will.
The gallbladder is an organ that is attached to your liver and it makes bile that is used to digest fat. The pancreas is an organ that makes insulin through islet cells ( cells contained in the pancreas) also digestive enzymes that allow the food you eat to be absorb and make nutrients.
Is it possible that you have injured yourself? Have you been coughing lately, it is possible to crack a rib from coughing. Rarely people have LT sided pain with pancreatitis but not usual. Gallbladder pain is PAINFUL alot of people think they are having a heart attack when it hurts, they feel they can't breath. The problem is usually stones that have formed in the gallbladder from a bad diet. If you con't to have pain you should be seen by a Dr. gallbladder problems can be life threatening if a stone would get lodged in your common bile duct.
Good luck

The symptoms of diabetes may begin gradually and can be hard to identify at first. They may include fatigue, a sick feeling, frequent urination, especially at night, and excessive thirst. When there is extra glucose in blood, one way the body gets rid of it is through frequent urination. This loss of fluids causes extreme thirst. Other symptoms may include sudden weight loss, blurred vision, and slow healing of skin, gum and urinary tract infections. Women may notice genital itching.

If you have diabetes you become grumpy and sleepy. It feels like you have the flu. In some cases you just become dizzy. You should go to the doctor and get it checked out.

The location you mention and the sypmtom is of a SPLEEN, which is the body's garbage collector/heavy-duty dispose-all. A pain in the spleen can indicate an infection, or an early indicator of cancer, too. If it persists, you really need to get checked out.

Here's some general information about DIABETES--

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and other symptoms. The World Health Organization recognizes three main forms of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes (occurring during pregnancy),[1] which have similar signs, symptoms, and consequences, but different causes and population distributions. Type 1 is usually due to autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic beta cells which produce insulin. Type 2 is characterized by tissue-wide insulin resistance and varies widely; it sometimes progresses to loss of beta cell function. Gestational diabetes is similar to type 2 diabetes, in that it involves insulin resistance; the hormones of pregnancy cause insulin resistance in those women genetically predisposed to developing this condition.
Early symptoms are related to hyperglycemia and include polydipsia (excessive thirst), polyphagia (excessive hunger and abnormally large intake of solids by mouth), and polyuria (excessive urination). Later complications include vascular disease, peripheral neuropathy, and predisposition to infection. Diagnosis is by measuring plasma glucose (blood sugar). Treatment is diet, exercise, and drugs that reduce glucose levels, including insulin and oral antihyperglycemic drugs. Prognosis varies with degree of glucose control.

Hyperglycemia is high blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Frequent urination
Excessive thirst
Extreme hunger
Unusual weight loss
Increased fatigue
Irritability
Blurry vision


Hypoglycemia is low blood glucose. Symptoms are--
Sweating and palpitations
Pale skin
Hunger - to the extreme
Trembling
Irritability
Anxiety/aggression
Poor concentration
Feelings of faintness/dizziness
Loss of consciousness
Death


Normal blood glucose ranges from 70-110. Anything below 70...hypo..anything above 110..hyper.

In the US, about 90% of diabetics are type II and 10% are type I.


And here's what you can do about it--

According to recent studies conducted by the Pritikin Longevity Center, diabetes starts from too much fat in the diet and insufficient exercise, not malfunction of the pancreas as previously thought. The pancreas continues to produce insulin when you have diabetes but the body becomes insulin resistant. Research has shown that over 90% of diabetes cases can be TOTALLY CORRECTED with diet and exercise. That means that you don't have to have limbs removed due to diabetes-induced gangrene. You don't have to go blind or suffer cardiovascular abnormalities because of diabetes. You can actually REVERSE some of these conditions with diet (nutrition, not weight loss) and exercise, and the removal of parasites and candida.

Watch the 8-minute non-profit video http://www.rawfor30days.com/view.html , about diabetes diet.
Best of luck.

I don't know that you would have pain. That was never a symptom of mine. You'll be really thirsty, dry mouth, using the restroom lots, and feel very tired. Of course, the best thing to do is see your doctor and ask them to do a fasting blood sugar.
