Harry,

Sadly the belief that " it can't happen to me " is all to common.

As most of us know, (too late) the abuse we inflict upon our bodies will

(eventually) catch up with us and, most unfortunately, the payback is

absolutely grim...

When I read this little thing I thought it was all too typical and that it

did document what many have tried to get across on this list..

Agreed. But we still don't know whether she is minding her diabetes

better!

Yes, deniel is a wonderous thing (noiice I did not say " wonderful " thing) I

was an R.N. with diabetes and never believed I would go blind-I was sure I

would just have a heart attack and be gone! (That happened later, but I did

go blind at age 34).

HEy folks,

My cousin, Dianna, has just been diagnosed as a Diabetic. She is underway

and searching the supermarket reading ingredients for total carbs. She now

understands the 2 hour post meal readings and their importance but she is

having trouble getting blood in the morning. Any suggestions?

I have stronglyh recommended this list for her. She is an excellent cook and

has made a number of dishes with Splenda for Crystal.

We will look forward to helping her live a complication-free diabetic life.

We are only here to advise.

Many receive advice. Only the wise profit from it.

She should run her fingers under warm water (and then dry them) before doing

a test. Sometimes wrapping up a finer with a rubber band will help too. Is

he visually impaired?

She could try putting her hands under warm water for a couple of minutes.

That might help a lot.

Hi cy:

I am better able to get blood if my fingers are warm. If they are the least

bit cool I have an awful time getting that blood to bead up.

Cy:

Take a look at

http://www.nfb.org/diabetes/diabetesbook.htm

There, you'll find an article on finger-sticking techniques. I highly

endorse the two-minutes-under-warm-water mantra and some have done well

with the rubber band temporary tourniquet.
