I'm Confused

Thanks for sharing your story. Diabetes is such a complicated thing, we don't always apreciate this. The well respected researcher Ralph DeFronzo talks about eight separate defects in T2 diabetes, some of which are signaling problems above and beyond the typical insulin resistance and loss of insulin production. And you, like Linda and myself and many others have had to walk into doctors offices and been told things like we are fat and if we just lost weight we would be fine. Well we aren't fine. We all struggle with our malfunctioning bodies. We want to know what is wrong and how we can fix it. And it can drive us crazy. But in the end, all we really need to do is manage it. And you have discovered some ways to manage it.

And you can always come here and talk because we feel your pain and understand. Many of us have dealt with misdiagnosis, have doctor stories and struggle daily with trying to deal with diabetes. But I want you to remember, You Can Do This, and you can live a long, healthy and happy life.
