NIASPAN RAISING BLOOD SUGAR 2 Replies
Does anyone have experience or knowledge of Niaspan raising blood sugar levels. Is this something the endocrinologist should take into consideration when diagnosing Type 2 in someone?

I'M ALIVE!
13 minutes ago...

Then the introduction.
"You know that ice cream cake we had today?"

Who I Am (My Introduction)
My name is Jose and I have type 2 diabetes, I was diagnosed in December 2009. Both my Mom, Dad and second older Brother have diabetes, I knew that I was walking around with a big red target on my back.
For the first two days after I got the news I was in the "why me" mode. I remember one day I was sitting in-front of the computer listening to itunes when "Drive On" by Johnny Cash started playing and for some reason I have never really listened to the lyrics of that son… Continue
