    Those go hand in hand unfortunately. My mother in law had hers removed and she struggled for a while but she is so much better off. Thyroid regulates so much inside our bodies, and can cause super sleepiness, i dont envy that problem, have you thought about getting it removed? That problem is usually hereditary, much like diabetes.

    Honey is a compound made by bees, it's almost a perfect food.

    I don't know what to do with the rest of your question, all I know from my end is that fake sugar is not good for the body, there has been a number of aspertime related issues that results in trouble.

    If you can source honey, go for it. There is a Amish Shop near Heber that stocks it, they may be able to ship you a couple. If a doctor says you cannot have honey, then that will be a surprise to me. Bees know what they are doing when they make the stuff.

    Honey is also good for arthritis. I don't think a small amount would hurt because it is processed differently than white sugar would be.

    Over 300? How are you not in a coma.

    Curious, how much you weigh.

    Diet is your biggest friend or foe. If you're a diabetic, the only liquids you should be drinking are water and black coffee.
    Carbs are a big no no too. Stay away from those fast food places unless you're gonna get a salad. Pasta, rice and bread are bad for you too.

    Diet soda is more detrimental to your health than regular soda. Those chemicals they use for sweeteners are toxic. Cut out soda completely and you'll probably lose 15 lbs within a month alone.

    I'm a diabetic also and I take 2 different medications.
    Metformin 500mg 2x per day
    Trulicity 1.75% injection 1x per week.

    You HAVE TO EXERCISE! Even if it's just walking for 30 minutes.

    I'm assuming you meant 250. Unless you're 6'8 you're obese. Been there my friend. Lose the weight, select better foods and the pounds will shed off.

    I was 248 and got down to 205. My blood sugar was normal. Problem is, I put the weight back on.

    My bad i ment to say 325 and my height is 6'5. So how does it work out if you have to use the injections? From what i was told you can't be a truck driver if you have to use injections.
