How much do you drink as a diabetic?

The doctors say 2 glasses of beer and your done.

As long as your sugar levels are okay, then just like anyone else.

A few drinks on a night out isn’t going to hurt every now and again, but regular, day in and out drinking will mess you up like anyone else.

New years eve I drank vodka, tequila, malibu, a few cocktails, god knows what, absinthe, jager bombs ( sooo good). Then other things. I really don;t know what.

We need to have fun just like everyone else.

We can have a night out, just like everyone else.

The week long only tends to last me a couple of days, but i compensate for that now.

Usually i like whiskey and vodka.

Nothing better than a good single malt.

How dangerous would Smarties Candies be for a type two diabetic?

I myself had been eating them..but, I finally tossed them out..I got the “jitters” from them..and felt a “high” feeling..I love that sour sweet taste..with that grainy crunchy feeling..but, enough was enough..plus..for some odd reason my meter said 550!! That was pretty much the highest it went..I decided to take some insulin..and do some exercises..and they lowered quickly..I was terrified..need I say more? I never wish to eat them again..(some sugars in foods really affect me..and others don’t!!) but, for me..I don’t think that they are for me..however, I am asking this..because I did a search..and some people are using smarties as a candy to raise the sugars..”just in case” of too low sugars…they also had skittles among other items on this list..what do you say and why?

smarties are almost pure sugar. Pure sugar raises blood sugar very fast.

Eating one smartie (one tablet, not one roll), will raise blood sugar a tiny bit very fast (just a few points) Eating 3 ROLLS of smarties will raise blood sugar VERY HIGH very fast.

It isn’t the food that is bad or good, it is the amount of it you eat, and when you eat it.
If you want to know how smarties really affect you, when your blood sugar is under 100, eat a serving size of smarties (check the package for how many that is and how much carb is in it). Don’t eat or drink anything else with it. Then, test your blood sugar again in another 1-2 hours.

You will then know exactly how much one serving of smarties raises your blood sugar and will be able to make a decision if you want to continue to eat them and when they are appropriate.

For example, I love chocolate. I will occationally (once or twice a month) eat a mini-milky way bar. It has about 5 grams of carb each, and raises my sugar about 20 points. I would only eat it if my sugar was already under 100, and I would never eat it if my blood sugar is over 120. I would never eat a full size milky way bar. I would only eat one mini, unless I was willing to take an extra insulin shot to cover the extra carbs. This is my choice, not a rule all diabetics must follow.

Candy isn’t “dangerous”, but the amout you eat and when you eat it makes a big difference as to if it will hurt your health or not.

how can i disipline my child who was adopted with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum disorder without drugs?

HI my son who was born at birth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum disorder has a hard time understanding what time outs are,or when something he likes is taken away. HIs behaviour at home is way different that most other places depending on where we are. As soon as he gets home from school his so hyper and works up the other kids i take care of and he does not sop. he does not stop when asked to stop. Any suggestions on behaviour methods or anything? if so kindly appreciated

I was born with FAS, the worse thing my parents did for me was to label me and pretend that I was unmanagable. I accepted that I was different and therefore was not bound to the same rules or consequeses as others or being respocibal for my actions. I did this for 30 yrs, it lead eventually to my own alcohol abuse, then drugs, then complete distruction. I almost lost my own family, it was self fulfilling prophacy becasue I accepted the label put on me by the Doctors, the psychatrists and my parents. (Who are excellant and loving parents) Then I lived up to it. What I finally found worked for me was a very very strict and structured enviroment. Everyday needs to be basically the same, with rules that never change and consequenses that never change, and he needs to be very physically active to burn off extra energy. He needs to have a chart that shows his acomplishments and then at the end of a set amount of time he should be rewarded for his good behavior and his self managing of his self control. The mostimportant lesson for a FAS child is learning to self-manage so that when they grow up they can be accepted in to society and behave in a socially acceptable way. They also need to learn how to effectivly manage sadness and anger so that it doesn’t build up and become a reason for substance abuse later. The same schedual everyday so that everyday is perdictable and this make life a lot more likely to be a sucessful; experiance for him.
I do need to add that ritilan DID help me tremendously in school. It worked to slow me down and help me focus which was extreamly important so that I didn’t get too behind. However people rely too much on meds and don’t do the important footwork with their child like , teaching self managment skills and wonder why the child nmever gets better. I recommend meds for school hours to help the child consentrate, which can also help them retain what they learn about self managment.

How reliable are drug store blood pressure monitors?

The doctor has repeatedly taken my wife’s bp. It is always about 160/90. But the drug store machine says it’s in the high 120′s – high 130′s/low 80′s. That’s a significant difference.

It depends which piece of equipment is being used.

Digital blood pressure monitors (press a button, get a reading) are notoriously inaccurate and will sometimes gives completely erroneous readings.

The old, analogue blood pressure cuffs (properly called sphygmomanometers) are far more accurate and are used as the ‘gold standard’ for testing blood pressure. In the case of a doctor getting an incorrect or suspicious reading on a digital blood pressure monitor he or she will refer to the sphygmomanometer as a backup device.

The device itself is very accurate but it depends on who is listening to it – if they aren’t paying attention they can get a false reading. The gauge on a sphygmo will ‘bounce’ when it hits systolic pressure, and will pulse in time with your heartbeat until it hits diastolic pressure. While this is by no means an accurate method of determining blood pressure (that has to be done using a stethoscope) it is useful for a quick-and-dirty guide to BP.

Being a human I have a question to all my friends that y we are not talking about the blood shed in Gaza.?

killing of innocent people , any valid reasons, some one can provide?

What’s going on in Gaza is the most heart wrenching thing I have ever heard of. You know how Adolf Hitler killed so many Jews because he simply wanted to rid them of “his country”? That’s what Israelis are doing to Palestinians and have been doing since 1948. The only difference is that Palestine is Palestinian land and Israelis want a country of their own so they reach extreme measures that involve the murder of innocent civilians. Oh yeah, just in case you’re wondering how Israelis got to Palestine….Palestinians welcomed them there during WW2 when Hitler was murdering them by the millions.

can nerve damage cause really bad itching?

I have very bad itching at the bottom of my right foot.
years ago i was told i have nerve damage due to diabetes
can this cause the bad itching? if so what can i do to stop it?
there is no rash no bumps its not red or any other odd color.
it just looks like a foot. its not dry not swollen, and my toe nail
is not yellow. nothing is odd looking. it looks like my normal every day foot.
I do give B.A thanks

Yes. If you have been told that you have nerve damage due to diabetes the itching feeling in you foot is likely nerve damage. When you are diabetic, and are not well controlled, the sugar eventually damages nerve cells. This progress may be a function that your meds or insulin may not be controlling your condition. There lots of options to treat nerve damage in your case. Some of the cheap ones are gabapentin and amitryptiline. I’d go see your doctor to have them do a microfilament test to look at the sensation in your foot to make sure that it is or isn’t nerve issues. It could very likely be a candida infection of the skin, athletes foot, or very dry skin.

My father has low blood pressure in his left arm..50 pts difference than the right arm. What causes it?

He also has a blockage in his leg. Is the low number in his blood pressure for his left arm due to the blockage. The point difference in the right vs. left arm can range from 30-50 pts.

This is caused by assymetry in hemisphericity of the left and right brain hemispheres.

Our bodies have 2 subsystems of our nervous system called the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous symtems. Also known as fight or flight system and the feed and breed system respectively. The cerebral cortex inhibits (slows down) the fight or flight system and therefore slows the heart rate down, breaths per minute, rate and amplitude of the pulse, etc. All the things that get excited in stressfull situations.

If you look closely at your father’s eyes, you will observe that the pupil on the same side as the increased blood pressure will also be dilated. If it is, a simple exercise to help balance out the hemesphericty is to have him play catch with a ball using the opposite hand. This will activate the cerebrall cortex and therefore inhibit the fight or flight system and ultimately (very slowly however) balance out the hemisphericity
