[Diabetes-talk] "Too Young for Insulin?"

[Veronica Elsea]

I too would be interested in what Ann Williams had to say. I've certainly
heard of frozen shoulder though and I gather it's pretty common. Fortunately
I haven't experienced it. But that does mean that something can go on
involving tendans and stuff. 
Man, someone ought to make a teashirt to sell that says something like,
diabetes isn't for the faint of heart! Man oh man! Time to go dance around
my kitchen or something. On second thought, I'll stick to the daily walk
where I can cover more ground. <grin.>

With respect, I've never heard of that side-effect.

Be interested in what someone like Ann Williams would have to say about it.

Hi Bridgit, and all,

Bridgit, I don't know, honestly. Never cared to 
research it. But several years ago, docs told me a 
couple things I'd never heard before, and was 
amazed at. Yet both seem true and have pretty much 
been playing themselves out. The first is that 
supposedly insulin builds up calcium deposits on 
your bone joints over time. If that's true, the 
old standby some Diabetics use, saying, if they 
eat more, they'll just take more insulin, etc., 
well, that has an additional consequence now, if 
this is true. And honestly, I would argue for it 
being true rather than against it, as it sure 
seems like what's been hapening over the years. If 
I was to get arrested and put in cuffs, they might 
pull my shoulder, as I can these days barely touch 
my hands together behind my back anymore. Yes, I 
admit, I don't stretch much at all, but never 
really have, and I'm far less flexible than I was 
10-20 years ago -- and I'm only 42, not old yet.

Second thing was that high blood sugar levels 
affect *all* of your body, even your teeth. Now, 
this is simple, common sense I suppose. But it 
never quite hit me, about it affecting my teeth, 
too, y'know? It was just a sort of, "Duh," moment 
for me. ;-)


Strive On!
Everett
