I am new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself. I am a t-2 and trying to get things under control.

I take:

JANUVIA 100mg
GLIMEPIRIDE 6mg
GLUMETZA 1000mg

And to answer the question, it the diabetes under control, the answer is a loud NO.

I am in my late 50's and the more severe problems associated with diabetes are starting to occur, so i figure i have a short period of time to get things under control before things go completely down the tubes.

My family on my fathers side has a strong history of diabetes t-1 and of my father and his brothers 3 of the 4 died from diabetic complications along with his mother and father.

I have been doing a lot of research on the subjects of glycemic index and glycemic loads and would really like to hear from others who have found useful information sources on these subjects.

Thanks,

JD
