I have been dealing with Diabetes for at least 40 years, although the way to do it has changed over the years, I always strive to have control. At this point, I work hard at it and still struggle to keep good control. One of the reasons I like my doctor is that he does realize how hard I work, he doesn't know why I still have problems, but he doesn't blame me for it....just keeps looking for ways to help. My arthritis is so bad now, it is difficult to even walk. I know if I could do more it would make a difference. I also know I could probably find a way to get more exercise, but I really get tired of dealing with all the aches and pains that come with it. I take so much medication now, I am reluctant to add pain medications. I am glad that someone is at least trying to find out more about us old people
and understanding that what works at even 40 might not work at 60.
