Re: Living my life with Diabetes

My name is Joey I've had diabetes since 2000 it started out as type 2 and quickly turned into type 1. I check my blood sugar level 4 times or more daily and I have to take between 5 or less insulin shots and I've had to make some dietary changes and etc. I just wish they would hurry up and find a cure for type 1 diabetes I have about cures for other diseases but nothing much about diabetes. I think the bionic pancreas is a good start to help with finding a cure. But I also have other health issues after being diagnosed with diabetes like high cholesterol, high blood pressure, acid reflux, sleep apnea, insomnia, asthma, bronchitis, fatty liver, depression, and etc. I take a lot of medecines for all of that stuff. You have to life your life like you don't have any health problems and/or diabetes. I do everyday.
