Everytime my life gets in order, something else happens.

looks like I got late onset diabetes.

Ah well, I was planning to diet this year anyway.

ur sig says u dont care about stars, if u dont care dont say u dont care.

ur sig is still causing a bad mentality cos it still mentions stars, stars have damaged this community very badly so just shutup about them.

and the rock is a complete twat too, he says those phrases so many times no-one likes him anymore, how about no sig full stop, u seem incapable of producing a decent sig.

@ one point it was suspected that i had diabetes, and it kinda freaks u out, so in a way i ges i kinda know wot ur goin thru.

Av u ad da blood test? Is it definite that uv got it?

I know sum ppl who've got it, and they live "normal" lives. I ges it wud take a bit of gettin used to, but after that u accept it, & it jus becomes part of ur life.

I hope everything works out <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;

That's not true harry, ask any junior doctor who's worked in accident and emergency.

Not trying to alarm you carriage - if you take good care of yourself I'm sure you'll be fine and stay healthy.

Still don't know what the situation is.
very high glucose urea, some <partial sugar breakdown product>

16 on a blood sugar measurement - but that was after food

I've had some blood taken for testing, but not an Hb A1C

With a bit of luck it's just an Efexor side effect (nasty drug - stopping taking it can kill you)

I'll let you know

Well, my fasting blood was 11.1. Regardless of wether it is diabetes or drug related I've got to take it seriously. With chris's problems, I really can't complain - whilst being life altering, with proper attention this shouldn't be life threatening
