[QUOTE="nvts, post: 135312, member: 3814"] Hi! That's me! I was diagnosed in my 20's and mine is attributed to many, many, many strep infections. (Who knows?). Most important: DON'T PANIC!!! Take a look at ALL the medications that he is/was taking. They could have an impact on this. Talk to your doctor. Make sure that you understand the information that you're being given. Ask for a referral to a really good nutritionist. His blood sugar can be affected by pretty much anything going into his system: sometimes positively, sometimes negatively. Diabetes is no longer the "death sentance" that it used to be. I've had it for over 15 years, had 3 kids (in 3 years) and still have a lot of fun. One big hint: Don't buy any medical supplies (meter's, blood test supplies, needles, etc.) without a prescription. Almost all insurance policies pay for these with a copay. It's WAY less expensive. Please don't panic...if you need help, pm me and I'll be glad to help! Beth [/QUOTE]
