I’ve had a reoccuring one and when I went to see my physician about it he
informed me that it’s fairly common in diabetics. News to me. Any one else
have this bit of nastiness? I’m interested in some
naturopathic/homeopathic remedies if any are to be had.

I am a type two who has had very nice readings for many weeks. It has been
very hot here (Detroit area) for a week. I have been exercising, but my
readings are noticeably higher. Can the heat itself do this?

The Health Studies Collegium of the Diabetes Action Research
and Education Foundation is recruiting volunteers for its Food
and Environmental Sensitivity Study for Diabetics.
Anyone interested should contact Cyndi Reeser at 301-946-7550.
ONLY TYPE II’s NEED APPLY.
The study will help determine how sensitivities to various
substances may effect diabetes.
Lost your address. Will send more info re complications when I’m
back from weekend trip trying hard, as it were.

Our 13 month-old daughter was diagnosed a few months ago with diabetes. We would
like to get in contact with other parents of infants/toddlers with diabetes. Thanks in
advance.

I need to find a source of PZI insulin. A recent text lists Anpro
Pharmaceuticals, but I cannot find any information about this company
from pharmacies here in Dallas, TX.
I’d appreciate any leads you can offer.

Awhile back there were several posts re meters that down-loaded to
computers. I wasn’t in the market for a new meter at the time, so
(natch) I didn’t pay much attention. Howsomever, due to recent loss,
I find I need a new meter. Would someone please advise: (1) is the
brand One Touch?; (2) does it come with the software? If not, where
does one get the software? Many thanks for the refresher.

I am trying to relate my OT Basic readings to lab values. I called
Lifescan and learned the following:
– lab value should be 12% higher than finger-stick value
FS = LAB/1.12
– meter "variance" (their word) is 20% max
.8*METER <= FS <= 1.2*METER
Using these two relations, I get
.9*METER <= LAB <= 1.33*METER
QUESTION: Words like "standard deviation" weren’t mentioned (and I forgot
to ask). Does this seem to be consistent with what others have found to be
the case? Is there a better analysis available?
Thanks,
Warren
BTW, Lifescan said that if FS > 1.2*METER, they would send me a new meter.
