Hi Tony: There is a LADA Diabetics group here on TuDiabetes, and a great resource is actually the video under that group put together by Manny Hernandez, founder of TuDiabetes (Manny has LADA). LADA is a term for Type 1 diabetes in adults.
Where can I read more about LADA?
I was just reading about this! LADA is often called slow onset diabetes because it often takes YEARS before the pancreas stops producing insulin completely. I have read where up to six years is common. Enjoy it and hope it lasts! (((hugs)))
I'm so glad there's a place we can call "home", John.....here; we understand, we care, and we support!
Where do I begin?
I was diagnosed 25 years ago with type 1, there's enough to write a short story. The most recent one was from a cocky psychiatry student who said, "Wow, you've had diabetes for 25 years, you probably know almost as much about it ...
How sad and scary about your mother-in-law, Melissa!! Has she started to get sick yet? Will you and your hubby have to take care of her when she eventually deteriorates? I am not trying to be negative, but don't you have a baby on the way and your...
I know but she is uneducated an truly damaged goods. oh well. I've just learned to put up with she'll be shocked when i live to be 80. lol
I fight the "everyone's blood sugar goes up in the 200s" battle every time I talk to my "non-diabetic" mother-in-law who hits the 270s after meals. To prove her wrong, my husband ate a snickers and soared to a whopping 110, I think it was. She als...

Here, I'm SO SO busy at school, at home and in areas of volunteering that there's absolutely NO WAY I could EVER get into any trouble!!!!
Enjoy those little sweeties, because they'll be teens in the blink of an eye! (this, I'm certain you've heard time and time again, but oh my goodness it is SO TRUE!)

Three Ladies in a Sauna......
THREE WOMEN, TWO YOUNGER, AND ONE SENIOR CITIZEN, WERE SITTING NAKED IN A SAUNA.
SUDDENLY THERE WAS A BEEPING SOUND. THE YOUNG WOMAN PRESSED HER FOREARM AND THE
BEEP STOPPED.
THE OTHERS LOOKED AT HER QUESTIONINGLY. 'THAT WAS MY PAGER,' SHE SAID. I HAVE A MICROCHIP UNDER THE SKIN OF MY ARM..
A FEW MINUTES LATER, A PHONE RANG. THE SECOND YOUNG WOMAN LIFTED HER PALM TO HER EAR.
WHEN SHE FINISHED, SHE EXPLAINED, 'THAT WAS MY MOBILE PHONE. I HAVE A
MICROCHIP IN MY HAND.'
THE OLDER WOMAN FELT VERY LOW -TECH. NOT TO BE OUT DONE, SHE DECIDED SHE
HAD TO DO SOMETHING JUST AS IMPRESSIVE. SHE STEPPED OUT OF THE SAUNA AND WENT
TO THE BATHROOM.
SHE RETURNED WITH A PIECE OF TOILET PAPER HANGING FROM HER REAR END.
THE OTHERS RAISED THEIR EYEBROWS AND STARED AT HER.
THE OLDER WOMAN FINALLY SAID.........WELL, WILL YOU LOOK AT THAT....I'M GETTING A
FAX!!
When you stop laughing, send this to those who will appreciate it.

- HAPPY MOMMY'S DAY DOLORES!
An Awesome Mom....
Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys
or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not
my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind
and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child
so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night
watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held a sleeping baby just because
I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces
when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small
could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom,
I didn't know the feeling of
having my heart outside my body..
I didn't know how special it could feel
to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond
between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small
could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom,
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much,
before I was a Mom .

Let's forget the unpleasant times and thank the lord for giving us new mornings and better tomorrows. HAPPY NEW YEAR to you Dolores! Be Well.

- hi Dolores,
I agree that your Dr. is most likely either being very conservative or his treatment information is outdated. Once you determine your insulin to carbohydrate ratio it will allow you the flexibility to occasionally enjoy a piece of cake, candy bar, etc...
