I have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes for about 3 years. I try to watch my sugar(carbs) intake but slip up occasionally, and I am not overweight, 6′ 0″178lbs. But over the last few weeks I have noticed that I’ve been urinating much more than usual (15 times/day), and my mouth is constantly very dry. I just can’t seem to quench my thirst. Other than that I have no other symptoms. Now is this considered still pre-diabetic, or are these symptoms indicative of a progression of the disease. Also I go for monthly blood work (for another condition), and my sugar is always in the 120-140 area when I am NOT fasting. But when I fast, my sugar comes in around 95. Thanks.

Can a middle aged man develop into type 1 diabetes when he was type 2 at onset?

More details: I am 48, diagnosed at 32 and probably was diabetic for 3 years prior. I started out with the pills and it worked ok but my A1c’s were in the 8 range. At 40, I was put on Insulin and my A1C avg. for the past 8 years is 6.0
Recently, my Dr. wanted to put me on Victoza….said i was a prime candidate because I am type 2. I tried it for 3 weeks and it did not lower my blood sugar which leads me to believe that I am now a Type 1 insulin dependent diabetic. Am I correct and my dr. screwed up thinking i was type 2 when I am in fact a type 1? If I were type 2 the Victoza should have lowered my BS but it did not.

How do you inject the air into an insulin vile?

I just changed from a pen to a syringe. Do you inject the air into the vile while holding it right side up (air into air) or upside down (air into insulin)?
Sounds dumb, but the nurse never explained it.

I was in the Navy for 15 years. I got out and have spent the last few years working in the civilian world. I’d liked to go back into the Navy and finish my 20 years.
My problem is that I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes about 2 years ago.
Can I still get back in or is it a deal breaker?

Can a Person With Type 2 Diabetes Enter Into The Military?

I have been wondering this for a very long while, since I have type 2 diabetes. Almost all my friends are joining the military, and I think I may want to too, just because of the benefits, and to pay for college.
All the questions on here are about type 1 (insulin dependent) and I haven’t found any answers for type 2 (diet controlled).

No, I am not on Insulin, my diabetes is controlled with diet, and I live as if I do not have diabetes.

How Does Long Lasting Insulin Work, How Does The Insulin Get Into The System Once Injected?

Sep
I like to know how things work but don’t seem to be able to find the answer to this one. I started on Levemir injections recently and everything I read is about the insulin, why I need it and where and how to inject.
If I take tablets I understand how they get into the system but where does the long lasting insulin go from the injection site. Is it circulating in the blood, stored in the liver or elsewhere.
Can anyone tell me or know of a good website with more information.
