Fatal Attraction asked:


The reason I ask is because my father, fathers father, mothers father all had diabetes before they died. I believe this puts me at 75% or so statistically of getting it. I’m 20 years old and I think I might have it but I’m to young and have only a few of the symptoms which I think could be from other things (thirst, excessive fatigue)

So whens its happen? And how do you go about slowing/preventing it in older age.

?Lindsey Jackson? asked:


I’m so disappointed in myself. I haven’t been in total control of my diabetes and have been eating pretty crappy lately. Well, I just weighed myself and haven’t in about a little over a month and just found out a gained close to 10 pounds, when I already had 25 to lose!!! I’m almost in tears at the thought of weighing what I do right now forever. Is it possible to just eat healthy and excersize and lose weight like a normal person even though I have diabetes type 1?

Or does that person have to lose weight to keep Diabetes away?

cinnamon asked:


I know that there is for sure when it comes to type 2 diabetes because if a person’s weight is kept in check, he/she will have a better chance of not developing diabetes. But what about type 1 diabetes?

……. asked:


I have notice when I eat something with allot of sugar my blood sugar gets really low a few hours later. I get light headed, dizzy, nervous and irritable. I also get thirty and feel really hungry. I get headaches too. When I eat something mainly with allot of carbs it goes back up. If I eat more sugar it goes up, but then suddenly drops again. Could this be diabetes? If so what type?
31 and thin

I don’t know if I have diabetes for sure yet, so are there any risks of getting laughing gas to get my teeth removed? Thanks!

screw_z00 asked:


Is there a correlation between drinking large amounts of soda and diabetes?? I have been over indulging on soda all of my life. My moms friend used to drink 2 cokes everyday at lunch and he has just been diagnosed at an early age of like 30 something. I mean diabetes is caused by high blood sugar, is there a relation?
