Hayaa,you are very welcome.Like you I have been gyming 6 days a week. Try not to overwork the same muscle groups. Alter you routine so muscles hve time to heal. When you exercise and do weights you tear muscle and it requires time to heal. If you ...

DIABETES IN UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

United Arab Emirates seeing diabetes explosion
Mon, 11 Feb 2008


The United Arab Emirates (UAE) form part of the Arabian peninsular with a population of about 4 million. One of the major health care challenges is the lack of national data, however, it is known that UAE has the second highest prevalence of diabetes worldwide with 25% of the population affected. Deaths related to diabetes are a serious problem and relate to genetic disposition, obesity, a sedentary lifestyle and physical in… Continue

I am going to contact IDF in Brussels - to see how I go about becoming a volunteer - as well as a speaker. That's the only way I can think of how to get into the 2011 IDF World Diabetes Congress in Dubai at the moment. If I come up with something else - will let you know!

Ciao Hayaa sono meravigliato !!!!!
Parli Italiano ?
Grazie per le informazioni
Qui in Italia se hai il diabete tutto è a carico del sistema previdenza nazionale, cioè non paghiamo niente , neanche per il micro.
Solo che abbiamo solo Medtronic e Roche.
Roche D-TRON plus mi trovo bene perchè so gestire molto bene il mio diabete ma con questo modello ho questi problemi
1) posso usare SOLO insulina HUMALOG perchè usa fiala pre-riempita (standard 300ml cartrdidge) e le fiale di altre insuline non vanno bene
2) ci sono frequenti occlusioni e NESSUN ALLARME.

A presto e grazie ancora

Bonjour Hayaa! I just answered Nel back - and I believe I have info on the Cellnova pump - will share as soon as I've come back down to Earth from attending the congress. I hope you can attend the one in Dubai in 2011 - I am hoping to go - as I was asked to be a speecher here - but will have to figure out if I can afford airfare, etc.! I'd work there as a volunteer again if it gained me entry for free. Take care - and stay healthy!

Hi Thanks for the advice but I already tried it. I had no luck on it at all. My sugars went crazy, my Dr. likes Lantus better but he said even that was no longer working for me. So that is why I have a new pump. I have been losing some weight though, which is good. Been exercising a lot lately. Thanks your friend Cathy.
