Blog about diabetes

Hello all, I just joined the group. I am a type 2 diabetic since
1998. I am on 2mg Amaryl/day. I have been able to get off insulin

reading/study, cooking/baking, glass etching, rubber stamping and
house plants. I am currently rehabing from a heart attack I had on

Can’t wait to meet all of you.
