Me pancreas is slightly fooked

[almalkav]

The most significant event in my life recently has not been the loss of my job. Two days ago I was informed by my doctor that I have diabetes. Thankfully it is not bad enough to have to inject myself with insulin and check my blood sugar levels often. Treatment will be based on diet change (reduction in carbohydrate intact, especially sugar),

Best of luck from a fellow brother in arms. I'm having my GTT on Monday :(

:o
I have a friend with that sort o_o it doesn't seme to bother him that much except he just has to watch what he eats. and I take sugar with me when we go anywhere in case he falls over and dies >_>

Fortunately for me I don't have to worry about falling over right now. If the meds I am on ever drop my blood glucose to hypoglaecemic levels then I would start carrying food for such emergencies.

Ooh, that sucks, but at least it seems to be a mild case.

As long as the drugs and diet work, it will hopefully remain mild, but unfortunately it could get worse. Thankfully that is something I won't have to worry about for a long time, according to my doctor.
