Hello, I am new to this group; having just joined. I have had Diabetes for about ten plus years now; but also have a host of other diseases.
I have had a heart attack, have borderline high blood pressure and have had a kidney removed because of a growth in the bad kidney.
The only thing good with my health is that my cholesterol is very low, but then the HDL (good cholestrol) is also very low (less than 25.)
Does anyone on this forum have any advice for me? I am in reasonable good health and do a lot of walking as well as treadmill and elliptical machine exercise.

A small study, but interesting to those battling both The D and Fibromyalgia.....

Hi Trudy ,to specifically classify it I have demographic urticaria ,and your right it is a hyperactive immunity.just started sudden with me and no apparent cause was found(other than scratching increases it)but only info I found is that it spontaneously comes and well spontaneously go in the next 10 years.

Hi Mohanned. I just looked at urticaria in Wikipedia, which noted that it could be an immune problem. It also said, "The most common food allergies in adults are shellfish and nuts. The most common food allergies in children are shellfish, nuts, peanuts, eggs, wheat, and soy."

I have Celiac Disease, which is not an allergy but a problem with the gluten in wheat, rye and barley; I also have an allergy to shrimp and am intolerent to soy and corn. Celiac and Type 1 commonly occur together; I have both.

It might be worthwhile for you to investigate the possibility that you have Celiac or some food allergy if you haven't already done so. Wishing you luck in getting relief soon, whatever the cause.

Hi everyone just joined your group. Just was wondering if any one developed allergies after his diagnosis?because the weird part is I developed a type of physical allergy(I can literally draw any where on my skin and comes out as urticaria)just wondering.

I have been getting Zantac via Walmart's generic Rx plan. Just discovered that I can get the exact same thing over the counter for the exact same price. The only difference is with a Rx I don't have to pay sales tax. Guess what I'm gonna be doing from now on. So much easier than having to call in for an Rx.
