Guest Lady Penelope Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Some of what I have been seeing with her does make me wonder how well under control her diabetes actually is. According to reports she injects herself with insulin six times a day which seems to be a high dosage. Possibly that has an impact on mood and behaviour. It must also be a challenge injecting herself during hectic schedules such she has faced during recent weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how he "helped" his daughter. Or so it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick_B Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 May has type 1 diabetes, meaning that she doesn't produce any insulin and is therefore entirely dependent on insulin injection. You can't control type 1 with diet or oral medication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is now a theory that there is a drink connection regarding diabetes type 1 developing in older people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick_B Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Type 2 diabetes is associated with obesity and poor diet, but that's not the full story. Some people will get it anyway. It was regarded as a disease of old age, but worryingly is now starting to turn up in younger people, even in their 30s and that is almost certainly due to poor diet and excess weight, especially a buildup of fat around the waist. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease, possibly triggered by a virus. There may also be a genetic factor. It starts most commonly in childhood and there's nothing you can do to avoid it.
