Life isn't about how you survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain !
Being overweight is causing the diabetes, I am six foot four and weigh 264 lbs. I spent most of my adult life at 205, topped out at 272 with prednisone (off pred now). Still on ssdi and will probably remain due to
WG/COPD/Neuropathy/IVF in vena cava/and now diabetes.

Wow, Dale, that was not a good day. Maybe being off of the Preds will help reduce the weight and then solve the diabetes issue, at least get the sugar count low enough to were you won't need to take any meds. Good luck.

Dale, make sure you increase your protein intake and get plenty of raw protein. Nuts, seeds, meat cooked rare (when it's safe to do so), sushi, etc.... That really helps to stabilize blood sugar. And of course minimize the white stuff: white flour, white sugar, etc...
Wow, Dale! When it rains, it pours, eh? Sounds like weight loss may help the diabetes. How bad are your hernias?? Are they things you can live with or do they need repair? Hope it all gets better soon!!

One seems to run down the middle of my belly, the doc says my gizzards won't fall out. The other is lower, feel like appendix area, this is the one they will fix. No hurry. You forget Sangye, my wife is Italian, manga, manga. She has changed to all wheat pasta, wheat flour, unbleached coffee filters etc. She really has been great. Thanks to all.
