I recently found out i have diabetes, but the results did not come in yet to tell which type i am. Right now the doctor makes me get on insulin, which i have been doing for 4 days already, and my blood sugar is reallly good, about 80. I heard the doctors in canada injected some kind of substance in mice who had diabetes and the next day the diabetes were gone. Will this ever be avialable for humans? Also are there any natural medicines that help lower blood sugar instead of insulin, and start to make the pancreas work again?

i know they will find a cure. i think in 5 years they will have one. i got diabetes when i was 7 and i am 37 now, when i look back i see how far they have come. my transplant Doctor is doing research on an iclet transplant where they in plant iclet in your liver and it works as a pancreas. look up Dr.Richard knight of Houston medical center and you can see his research.i had a kidney/pancreas transplant almost 5 years ago and i am no longer a diabetic . i was lucky and i have had no trouble accepting the two new organs. i believe with all my heart that they will have a cure in 5 years. they already know the gene that causes it they just need to know how to get rid of that gene.

Many readers find it peculiar or frankly incorrect to start a newly diagnosed diabetic on insulin. This is not true. First your physician probably suspects type 1 in which insulin is the only option. Second type 2 diabetics who are 'lean' - a body mass index of less than 25 kg/m2 - are increasingly started on insulin. These individuals are a subset - the minority - of type 2 diabetics and although they display insulin resistance initially there is a greater relative lack of insulin. There are no 'natural' medicines for diabetes. For type 2 diabetics thiazolidiones - pioglitazone/Actos and rosiglitazone/Avandia - do seem to improve pancreatic function a little. The Canadian study was done on a pure strain of rodents who were developed to have a specific defect leading to diabetes. Thus a 'cure' was not so far fetched. People are far more complex and the defects in both type 1 and type 2 diabetics are multi-factorial unlike the rodents referenced above. At present despite decades of effort - mostly with type 1 diabetes where the progression of events is better defined - we are no closer to a cure today than we were in the earliest stages of research. I sincerely doubt that diabetes will be 'cured'. The good news however is that over the past 5 years or so the treatment of diabetes - including analog insulins - has allowed us to control blood glucose levels to near 'normal' range. This sounds to be your case. With improved control diabetic complications have been consistently shown to be decreased although certainly not eliminated. It sounds as if your physician has done a good job in controlling your glucose. I wish you the best of health and may God bless.

Well if you are on insulin already then your diabetes has gone undiagnosed for awhile. That doesn't make sense to me that they prescribed you insulin without knowing what type you have? Weird. That is a first for me. Also that your blood sugars regulated that quickly after only 4 days. There is no proven natural remedy though many claim to have things that help lower your bloos sugars. I wouldn't fool with my health like that. Diabetes is something to not take lightly. It is a serious disease and you really do need to follow doctors orders on your meds, diet, etc.
My Mom passed on 2 years ago from complications from her diabetes. She went into a diabetic coma because she was still taking her insulin and didn't know her kidneys had shut down from it. She also lost half of her leg from diabetes, have neuropathy in her legs so bad, problems with her eyes, etc. Her body got a bad staph infection and within a few days she was gone.
I am just letting you know to take this seriously and not fool around at all when it comes to your health.
Yes they are coming closer to finding ways to cure it in mice, but it will be awhile before they have any kind of human trials. Hopefully it will happen in our lifetime. Wouldn't that be wonderful. Like anything else things take years and years and maybe won't happen in our lifetime.

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.

I can't believe your doctors told you that you have diabetes and they are not keeping a closer watch on you. when i was diagnosed i was hospitalized for a week and a half. No there will never be a cure too many businesses make too much money off of us who do have diabetes. if your pancreas does not work it will never work. but if you have type 2 and you work out and eat well it will be controlled better.

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has NOTHING to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past.
It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

As for a cure, I think a lot of depends on awareness and advocacy: having this be turned into a national priority in many countries, as it starts to turn into an out-of-control epidemic (type 2, especially) should help.
As for your diagnosis, are you seeing an endocrinologist already? If you haven't, you should: getting you on insulin right off the bat sounds a bit odd, indeed.
I want to take the opportunity to invite you to join TuDiabetes.com, a community for people touched by diabetes. I am sure you will find the hundreds of people in it to be a great support group.
