i am a type 1 diabetic and filling out college scholarship information and when i got to the “disabilities” section diabetes is not an option but glycogen storage disease is so im wondering if diabetes is included in that? or should i just mark off medical disability?

My cat has diabetes and we give him insulin. Except he poops continually all over the basement. We’ve tried using new litter, everything you could think of. My mom says it’s just from the diabetes, but he just started doing it 2 months ago and has had diabetes probably his whole 10 year kitty life. Is it from the diabetes?

I really want to know the amount of sugar (consumed daily) that someone needs to get Type II Diabetes. I know the recommended is no more than 30g a day, but say a person goes to 60g a day, would he get diabetes?

I overheard someone mention their relative drank way too much beer on a daily basis, and their physician said their diabetes was caused by excessive daily beer-drinking. Is this true?

Nikki R asked:


My husband has had several health problems and the Dr.s can’t figure out what it is. He recently found out that his blood sugar has been fluxuating. All of his lymph nodes are swollen, he feels like he has the flu all the time(body aches, chills, hot flashes). He has been depressed. He has no energy. He has mood swings. He has headaches alot. These things have lead him to Dr, to Dr. To Dr. They have done test after test, including surgery to biopsy a lymph node. No Cancer of any kind. They can’t find anything. Can all of this be problems from the onset of diabetes and could it take YEARS before the diabetes actually show up? Is there something we should be looking for?
We have been told that his problem could be an auto immune disorder but they don’t know which it is.
His kidneys were checked, I think. He had started having trouble because he was constantly going to the bathroom to *** and he was always thirsty.
He also had trouble with his fingers drawing up from time to time but that was years ago. It hasn’t happened in years.
Just found out that his mother took some medicine for diabetes. She died at the age of 47 of a stroke or something along that line.

deedumdah asked:


I know urine tests and blood tests could be administered but I was told by someone that urine tests won’t even be able to tell if you have diabetes… that you’ll end up having to get a blood test to determine if you do have diabetes. Then what’s the point of getting a urine test?
Thanks in advance
