Stopping the pain.
I'm going to write today to shine the spotlight on the nutrient that should be of most concern to you as a diabetic. If it isn't, or is something you don't give a lot of thought to I hope at least it will when you finish reading. There are only three macronutrients - protein, fat and carbohydrate. Every

In Praise of Metformin
I prefer not to go the medication route for glycemic control because it seems I can manage without it for now. I however wouldn't let that stop me from expressing my admiration for what has now come to be the gold standard in managing type II (yes i am aware of the side effects). Metformin continues

Time To failure
I think the guys who have had success with Lupron therapy remaining effective for years are worth examining...what is the common denominator...so far I have talked to 53 long term Lupron survivors and the following protocol keeps coming up as a common denominator.....Lupron, Avodart, Metformin, Arimidex

Metformin / Glucophage & Lupus
Hello! I was thinking a long time ago when I was diagnosed with lupus, that the culprit had to be something I was taking or using, for example, Splenda or others similar so I stopped using it, but I did not think that could be the Metformin or Glucophage. Has anyone noticed any alteration of lupus

Here we go again 🙄
Hello everyone, I haven't posted for a while as have been waiting to start round two. My last round as some of you know stopped at EC as I was sharing my eggs. Only got 8 eggs so let the lady have them. I'm due to start again and just like last time my period is blinking late. Honesty you would think

Struggling to keep blood pressure down.
I have had blood pressure problems for years but usually the levels are worse when tested by the nurse at my diabetic 6 monthly check. However, even my checks at home are now showing high sometimes. It's ok after a walk but high in the morning and evening. Does anyone else have a different reading in

PCOS and constant weight gain
Ive been huge and I've been tiny thanks to metformin but due to the terrible side effects I had to come off them. I ended up gaining 30kg again! I eat gluten dairy sugar free diet. I have taken everything under the sun to help but the weight won't budge! I can't fit into any clothes. Stopped going out

Imulin 1
I'm due to start on Imulin 1 when I get my prescription today. I've seen the diabetes nurse at my GP surgery and she advises to start on 10ml before bed and to watch my blood sugars for a week and then up it by 2ml each week until I get my blood sugars into single figures. Is this standard practice?
