Answer 3

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.

Answer 4

Hi I am sorry about your friend. Well I know this much Having diabetes is bad for your health. MY mother had that and cervical cancer at the same time. Just make sure you say very closely to the plan food program that's for you,also get a good doctor and keep in check with him.

Answer 5

It's hard to say if diabetes had anything to do with his death unless you know exactly what it was that killed him. Sure diabetes is major risk factor for heart attacks, but if he was otherwise healthy, young (?), with good glucose control then I'd say diabetes probably wasn't responsible. Diabetes is a serious condition that tends to take its toll as chronic disease later in life.

Answer 6

Perhaps your friend was not managing his diabetes as well as you think. BG numbers can be all over the place, even in a seemingly "healthy" person. As long as you keep your levels under control, you should remain in good health and live a long life. I'm very sorry for the loss of your friend.

hi,
type 2 diabetes,depending onthe duration and control tends to affect the sympathetic nervous system. due to which patient do not recognize the symptoms of hypoglcemia and myocardial infarction. both could be very fatal. hence it s adviced for the type 2 dm patients to carry sweet chochlate every time, in case the feel sweating, giddiness, symptoms suggestive of hypoglucemia, blood sugars might be very low by that time in these patients.
its good for u to have ur blood sugar tightly controlled and reggular check up.

Answer 8

One of the problems with using medication and insulin to control high blood sugar is that they have a potential to drop your glucose level too much. People on insulin especially have more problems with the medication than they do from the high sugar level's effects. Chances are, your fried died because his blood sugar fell too low. That is a side effect from the treatment, not the disease. Just watch yours closely. Don't go to bed without eating something if your glucose is low. Don't skip meals or snacks. Learn from any mistakes he made. You have to be the overseer of your health and life. Do it well.

Answer 9

Diabetes itself won't kill you. An hyperosmolar coma will, an acute myocardial infarction will, but the latter may appear very late in life or never and the former only appears if you have a bad control. Enjoy your daily life, and don't be afraid.
