I felt every word that you wrote. It is a day to day adventure of ways to keep blood sugars level. I don’t succeed alot of the time. I was diagnosed as Type 2, but a couple of years ago was questioning I was misdiagnosed. I guess it is called LADA. The only thing it means to me now is that I should have been getting insulin at a much younger age. I am 52 yrs now but was diagnosed at 42…but with all the medical problems I had growing up, it should have been apparent back then.

But there are definite times, especially dealing with my family, they want everything to be blamed on the diabetes. At my age, I also have arthritis (not bad enough not to work, tho) and back pain from several car accidents in my lifetime.

Is the diabetes making my back pain worse or is my back pain making the diabetes kick in with high numbers because of the pain?

I love reading this blog. I will go back now and read some others. Thanks for letting me voice my opinion.
