Introduce yourself

[Gina]

Tell me a little bit about yourself!

[Miree Hampton]

Hi my name is Miree, I live in Lincoln, I'm married with two teenage boys, two dogs and a cat with diabetes. My friend introduced me to a product, I tried it on my cat and within 4 months he's gone from 11 units of insulin down to 1. I'm very excited about this product and will share with anyone who is interested.

Hi Miree,

This drug product sounds exciting! Tell us what it is. I love to look up drugs on Google. Whenever I get a prescription, I look it up. Even for family. I always want to know what else the drug is used for, and what side effects to look out for. Thanks.

Hi Sugar Plum, Just to let you know this is not a drug, I've found a food science company that has been helping people for over 20 years and when my friend shared this with me I started all my family on it and because I knew alot of people were getting help with their diabetes I decided to try it on my cat. This is the first time I've been in a chat room and my son said I'm not allowed to advertise any products or a business, seems a bit silly to me because how else can one reach out and help others. So the best I can do is to give you my email which is [e-mail] and from there maybe we can connect by phone. Have a nice day.

Hi, I am Hope. I was stricken with type 1 about a year and a half ago. Before that I was type 2 for a few years and I have been borderline diabetic since I was 20 and at 15 I was diagnosed as hypoglycemic. I did not take any of this seriously until i was older. I probably could have avoided diabetes. I hope to cure it someday. So far i am controlling it. I was not let into the other chat room because i do not use western medicine.

[Sugar Plum]

Hi,

If you don't use western medicine, what do you use? You say you're type I: have you considered that western medicine will help you?

Hi,

I'm still keeping my blood sugar at normal. Some days I don't get to exercise and I'd feel guilty about it, but at least I do it about 5 or 6 times a week. And I still miss "pigging out" like I used to. Boy, did I enjoy it then. I still go to buffet restaurants once in a while, though. In fact, I'm going again in a few weeks. I found that I saved a lot of money when I cut down on foods, such such frozen meat pies, casseroles, etc. But I've been feeling good for two years. I'm still afraid of the thought of pricking myself everyday, so I never bothered to fill the prescription for a glucometer. I'm not diabetic but my doctor still wanted me to get one. I'm afraid to draw blood. Haha!

Hello Gina,

I've been a diabetic for just 2 years now and it has changed my life profoundly. I am a doctoral candidate at VT in sociology studying water rights of indigenous people. Prior to my diagnosis, I allowed stress to rule my life, now it cannot and does not. There's a lot I've learned in a short amount of time and I look forward to learning more and to sharing in this new path.

Best wishes,
Eileen

Hi, my name is Ana and I am from Northern Kentucky (even though I just moved from Florida 8 months ago). I have had diabetes for 19 years. I was on the insulin pump 7 years ago (I was on it for 8 years) and decided to get off of it. Now, I am on Lantus, Humalin and Novolog. I didn't know these diabetes sites existed until 2 days ago and I am hooked :)
