do you have problems not understanding or caring about diabetes and complications? 4

Sep 21, 2009 | Complications of Diabetes

my mother and family flatly refuse to believe that falling sugar levels affect your judgement and amke you irritable which is especially hilarious given that she always complained bitterly about my father’s lack fo sympathy to her health problems.
the worse one are the ones who think they know but are unaware about haow extensive and complicated diabetes is.

is she the one with the diabetes or are you? If it is you and she doesn’t believe you, then have her talk to your doctor. My daughter was diagnosed with type one when she was 10 and I definitely understand what you are talking about. Also, if it is you with the falling levels, you have to start realizing when it is starting and taking measures to help yourself. Sometime you can do things when you are too low (like ignore it) which can hurt you badly.
Good Luck!!

A Radical Approach to Diabetes Complications – Robin Willcourt, MD 0

Sep 14, 2009 | Complications of Diabetes

Robin Willcourt, MD speaks about A Radical Approach to Diabetes Complications at the 16th annual A4M conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. More: Leptin, grehlin, intestinal secretagogues, and a newly discovered hormone, osteocalcin, Vitamin D and omega 3 EFAs all play a role in diabetes, along with the traditional hormones, insulin and glucagon. We explore how these hormones and glucose interact, as by appreciating these complex processes we may eliminate the pathological events seen in diabetics. We explain how Pulsatile Intravenous Insulin Therapy (PIVIT) improves the abnormal metabolism that is associated with diabetes and, by extension, aging. Item #A4M083WSS4-11

What complications could diabetes bring about? And all are they all connected to poor blood circulation? 7

Sep 12, 2009 | Complications of Diabetes


Diabetes can lead to blood vessels becoming very damaged, which means that it can lead to a lack of blood circulation to parts of the body. So, depending on where the blood stops flowing, any number of things can happen. For example, one could become blind if blood stops going to the eyes. Another common end result is amputation of extremities after they no longer have a blood supply. This is done so that they don’t rot, which is very dangerous.

Edit: Sorry Sue, but although nerve damage does happen, the symptoms are mostly due to poor blood circulation.
