I was able to to keep things under control by diet. I was diagnosed
when i was 19 and in Nursing school. 8 years ago my husband passed
away,and i had 3 children in College. So my drug of choice was food.
Stress and food added 90 lbs. Which started Diabectic 2.

Last May i hurt my foot ending up in the hospital for 6 weeks,it really
scared me.I lost 90 lbs. bettter than foot it was hard.How long were
you on the meds before the made you sick?? Avandia droppped my sugar
so low,i got sick and swollen feet. After other tries,the 1 that makes
alot of people sick Metformin worked,but the diet is so important. Do
you have a Diabectic Center in your Hospital if so i feel they can give
you more time. We all are so different,i'm so sorry you are having a hard
time. I have polyneuropathys so my problem was exercise,so i do
streching in the morning,in the afternoon i dance with my walker ok stop
lauging and yoga..I wish i could be more help but at neurotalk,there always
seems to be a answer that comes along. You are not alone. Sue
