    • Close Grandparents Raising Children

      raising an 10 yr old granddaughter with special needs who has been emotionally, mentally and quite possibly sexually abused

      Treatments

      Sometimes
    • Close Diabetes Type 2

      I was dxd 7/05 after feeling poorly for months with an A1C of 8 and FBG of 197. Although relieved at last to have a valid reason for why I was feeling so bad the words "You are diabetic" still stings!! I was prescribed glucophage and told to test 6 times a day although I think I probably tested at least 8 times a day in the beginning trying to get to know my body. It's been a long hard fight but I'm near where I want to be, Ive lost 58 lbs, A1c is at 5.5, hoping for a 5.

      Treatments

      Dietary Modification Working / Worked
      I eat on my own plan and have been quite successful, I have lots of veggies, protein, some carbs and fruits.
      Metformin Working / Worked
      Started with 1,750 mg and lots of "Gluco-trots" if you know what I mean, down to 1,500 for the last 3 years, trots are gone and it works for me
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I've lost 58 lbs and still want to lose about 5-6 lbs to be at my ideal weight. You must have some exercise in your daily plan to manage this.
