I have recently finished my 12 month treatment for V& O. I am pre diabetic and just had my yearly checkup. My blood sugars are now in the normal range.i.e. not diabetic. I also find that my blood pressure which was normally borderline high has during my treatment gone to a healthy reading. Is this a

I’m inclined to suggest to GP that I start to reduce the diabetes meds as I really feel that my general malaise started soon after these were thrown into the mix.

Now, since PMR & Pred from November2023, it's jumped to 46... despite huge cuts in anything sweet and also cutting most carbs. 48 is consistent with diabetes. Has anyone done the Michael Mosely diet? I know nothing about it nor which book of his is easiest to follow. Thank you.

Hi folks , I have nephrogenic diabetes which was caused by taking lithium and I know this isn't really the right chap group as its not related to diabetes as the name suggests.

Amylin Aggregation and Diabetes • Amylin Aggregation Mechanism: • Amylin (also called islet amyloid polypeptide, or IAPP) is secreted along with insulin by pancreatic beta cells.

It can be related to any condition like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's or any other Brain or body condition like diabetes, etc. If any of you have previously posted any such research, I request you to link to your post via the comments below. Thank you 🙏

Useful for those who've been told they are in the pre-diabetes or even diabetes range or worried about weight gain and/or raised blood sugar levels due to steroids.

can anyone confirm to me this that hopefully this shows I don’t have kidney problems or diabetes? Many thanks

has anyone on here with cirrhosis had type 2 diabetes? I am now on insulin but the doctor said I should be able to get off the shots hopefully in a few months. I’ve been on for 2 days and it definitely is reacting to the shots.

I need to ask whether other members with Diabetes type 2 and Polymyalgia Rheumatica have seen similar issues with blood sugar control.

Just wondering what other members made of this. I have been on prednisolone for 10yrs now for GCA starting at 60mg tapering down slowly to 2.5mg but always had flare so had to keep going up to 40mg and start to.come down again.My sugar levels varies between 42 -48 on most occasions,but once went to 52

Context Matters: The inflammatory response depends on:- Overall diet composition- Amount and frequency of sucrose consumption- Individual metabolic health- Presence of existing conditions like diabetes or obesity 4.

Had 800+ Triglycerides (TG) 3 months back; Diabetes Type II, Hypertension Was put on Statin+Fibrate + Saroglitizar After 3 months, Triglycerides came down to 350 but reducing further. Family has history of high triglyceries.

I have been diagnosed with steroid induced pre diabetes. I read somewhere that a chromium supplement can help? Anyone else tried ? I’ve been taking pred since January, currently on 6.25mg

His insistence of calling asymptomatic diabetes type 2 as a remission instead of as a reversal struck a chord with me. Sustained Intermittent Fasting can in time result in normal test results indicating the absence of diabetes.

65 in 2 weeks a d I want to shed type 2 diabetes and have been persuaded to take up something other than dog walking .week 1 complete and apprehensive about week 2 but I have an ideal location to run and maybe next week I will introduce some music to take tge mind away from the torture lol 😆

22+ years of both Hashi and diabetes (Type 3c)…Gp has cut my levo from 100 to 75, and I’ve kept the T3 (5x3) as he is convinced that my high HR is from ‘overmedication on levo’ ( long story involving 4 1/2 years long covid)…felt obliged to take lower dose to shut him up and get referred to correct drs

The Dr. informed me I’m type 2 diabetes and that was it. No discussion of what lies ahead or taking care of the results. So I’m turning to the tribe here as I know there are a few here that are so well informed on interpreting labs.

Don’t normally take sugar especially now as just been diagnosed as type 2 diabetes (no pills required so far )
