Health update!

So I finally got diagnosed with diabetes from my doctor! I’m so happy! I can’t wait to really let myself go now. The brakes are off and the train has well and truly left the station!🐽

I think I’m gonna order extra McDonald’s today 😋

So true @Heavyboy. I have no amputation (yet) but I do have neuropathy in both feet. And it can go to hands as well. All our appendages require blood circulation in order to survive. I implore you, take control now. The older you get, the harder it is. And you can't undo nerve damage.

@SW-User love how they never respond to you when you talk about your real, life altering side effects. I truly hope you never have to get an amputation and I’m sorry you have to live with this condition. I’m also sorry that they’re glorifying it as if it’s not a life threatening problem that destroys lives and families. 🖤

@SW-User I hope you’re okay and I understand your concern but this is what makes me happy! ☺️

@Heavyboy did your doctors tell you that diabetes makes you immunocompromised, makes it difficult to fight off infection, and makes you high risk for all sorts of maladies. Not the least being covid. It touches you and affects you in so many ways. I fear you don't have a solid understanding to base your glee on.

Thank you @amelia25. I appreciate that more than you could imagine.

@SW-User I barely go outside so that’s not really an issue for me ☺️

@Heavyboy perhaps that would be a reward if you get your sugars (carbs) under control. You are young enough and new enough to a diabetic regimen that you can reverse it. But you have to pay attention and work at it.

I seriously don’t want to work at it though I have everything I need at home. Plus a heated blanket to keep my feet warm @SW-User
