My trigger finger(s) come and go but haven't been bad enough for me to get any surgery. My left pointer "fixed itself" after last summer. I have a frozen shoulder that may require something, but it's on the left for me. I went to physical therapy but they only stretched and worked out the shoulder - I got increased range of motion but my WHOLE SHOULDER moves not the balljoint. The eye thing was a setback, and caused me great concern and anxiety because I've been so good for so long.

Hey keep up the great work and I wish you health for the next 100 years!

Thanks for the comment, I'm from Mountain View, CA.

How is your pump treating you? When did you make the switch?

Hope all is well,
Ryan

I have all my bases covered but just found a prolific neuropathy at my last eye visit. caught it very early and already got it lasered... and am hoping for the best! Take care Shawn and thanks for writing back!

This site has been wonderful for me. There are great people and it is nice to ask others about what they are dealing with. Sometimes you can learn lots of great stuff.
I also see that you are a pastor. There is a group called Christian diabetics. I am a member. Look it up and join. It's nice to find others with whom you have things other than diabetes in common with.
Once again, welcome.
