    • Close Diabetes Type 2

      I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes last year and although it scares me I cannot seem to quit eating the carbs and bad foods. I have no motivation or willpower. You would think the ill effects of diabetes would be a motivation but I am just not doing what needs to be done. Along with this, I have sleep apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, depression and restless leg which I take medication for all of these.

      Treatments

      Glyburide Working / Worked
      causes diarrhea
      Metformin Working / Worked
      1000 mg 2xdaily
    • Close Healthy Eating

      I am a carb-aholic. I crave sweets constantly and overindulge. I am 80 pounds overweight with Type 2 diabetes, hbp, high cholesterol, sleep apnea and rls. I have no willpower and am slowly killing myself with my food choices and non-existent physical exercise.

      Treatments

      Crestor Working / Worked
      cholesterol in a decent range only because of the crestor
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      keeping me from extreme depression but not motivating me to do the right thing for my health.
