I need to know if there are any teatments/cure for diabetes that aren't insulin shots or pump stuff.? |
Please, I really don't need random people trying to give an answer or be the hero of the day by making something up to get two points. Please, this is very important, and I really need honest answers. If you are type 1, then no, there is no other form of treatment. They do have the nasal spray insulin, but you still need some form of long acting insulin. Type 2 there are oral medications, plus sometimes it can be controlled by diet and exercise alone. I believe Julian Whitaker, M.D. of the Wellness Center and author of the book "Reversing Diabetes" is a good source. Look him up on the Internet. I tried his program for a while and it worked but I have the inability to follow it for the long term but given the serious complications of diabetes, I am working on dedicating my self more seriously. Of course there are oral medications. Also go to the "Diabetes Forum" on the net and talk to people who have Diabetes. There are medicines available for type 2 diabetics like glipizide, metformin, pioglitazone, etc. They don't work as well as insulin. Giving yourself an insulin shot is not painful. The glucose test is more painful than the shot. pharmacy student insulin is the best way to go....the pills stop working after awhile....if u use a 29 gauge needle it will not hurt at all.....i feel so much better on insulin i'm sorry i waited 16 yrs to go on it....good luck to you..... diabetic 19 yrs.... I was diagnosed 4 years ago with type II diabetes. I am taking Metformin, 2000 MG a day. Also take Actos, 15 mg a day. My next step is to take insulin. I can add about 500 Mg of Metformin but thats the maximum daily dosage. The metformin will help your pancreas do what it is supposed to do. You can help by diet, exercise and closely monitoring your sugar. |
