nope. you're all alone in this world. Try a diabetic forum  Seriously though, be careful. Make sure and eat a lot of snickers and rink a lot of soda pre-game to keep yourself hydrated. Er wait, is that bad? Thanks a lot Honors Biology.... -------------  |

My dad's diabetic. I've been in situations where I had to save him from death by diabetic shock, or in one severe case when he hurt himself and bled all over the bathroom..
If you have problems with passing out often .. you definitely need an insulin pump. Keeps the sugar/insulin level relatively steady.. Are you Type 1 or 2? ------------- Is God real? You'll find out when you die. 
Okay, I don't have a clever signature zinger. So sue me. |
