Hi,

I'm new to the list, new to being diabetic and wanted to introduce myself.

I've been totally blind since March 1994 as a result of a rare form of limphomia

making the lining of my brain swell and damaged the optic nerves. Cancer free

for 13 years now.

I was just diagnosed within the past week or two as having diabetes. I was

having problems we thought were side effects of another medecine but when my

wife realized I was going to the little boys room allot and also dehydrated, she

checked my sugar and it was around 380. She's been diabetic for a few years now

and I'm glad she saw the signs. We went to the doctor and my a1c was 11.

So new to this and looking forward to learning all I can. So far I'm on

metformin once a day, eating better, exercising, and using this to finally give

myself a kick in the rear to lose some weight. Taking it one day at a time

though.

Hi Steve and Other New Members,

Welcome to the list. My name is Danny. I live in Dunwoody, Georgia with my

wife and two daughters. I am completely blind due to diabetes. I contracted

type 1 diabetes when I was six years old in 1960. I am sure you will find this

list to be beneficial in managing your diabetes. they are a great bunch of

folks, knowledgeable, experienced, and, in general, most agreeable!
