Peggy Lynne Ashman replied to Cathy Jacobson's discussion 'Who has had the H1N1 vaccination.....how about your famiy members?'
Here in Las Vegas they only allowed certain groups of folks receive the vaccination due to the shortage of vaccine. I received mine about 3 weeks ago. The regular flu shot I received a few weeks before that. I feel a sense of relief knowing that I…

Brenna? Thanks for your note. I am calling the diabetes education specialist this afternoon! Would you mind telling me what PCOS is? I see those letters a lot but don't know what they mean. I am tired all the time and it takes a great deal of…

You should try to keep fasting bs 100 or under, 1 hour after eating 140 and 2 hours after eating back to 120. This is not always possible or easy. I was born and live in Phoenix. I lived in Mesa and Tempe and Chandler. My family started in Tempe in 1870's.

- Welcome! Your doctor sounds like mine. You have to start counting carbs per meal and snacks. I took a D Education class at out local county hospital. There is a lot to learn. There are great people on here who can help you. I was diagnosed in Jan'2009. Sugg.'s Go on Diabetes Daily Website-They are doing a Diabetes 101 newletter that is really helpful. 15grams of carbohydrate is 1 carb. For meals 45-60grams of carb is 3-4carbs per meal- 3X daily. 3 snacks per day 15 grams of carb is 1 carb per snack. A total of about 15-16 carbs per day about 225-240 grams of carb per day. Hopefully these sugg.'s will help you to get started.
