Some of us get tired of the rules and regimen of being a long-term diabetic. Newly diagnosed patients often don't understand the fuss.
Sure, being a diabetic can be inconvenient, (many say I would love to be able to sleep through the entire night again - you know, forget all these bathroom trips.) But to become fatal. None of these symptoms are fatal. And yet, the symptoms develop so slowly many can't figure out anything is actually happening. Problems might take a decade or more. And by then, sometimes the problem has now become irreversible.It's too late.
You needed to care more and pay more attention to the little details about 10 years ago and more.
What's your story for yourself or a loved one? How has diabetes affected you and your family?
Can you help someone with their problem? Have you had this situation before in your family and you found a way out?
So much of medicine is trial and error. But remember, ALWAYS consult your doctor before making any kind of changes to your treatment plan. What works for one person might not be advisable for another. Stay safe - let your doctor make that decision.
If you truly wanted to try it and they say No -
ask them why they are against it and see if a compromise could be reached.
