Hi there.... I'm new to all this and very nervous about being here (I'm computer shy) as a child of the sixties.
I came here because I have a form of diabetes that's a unwelcome complication of my endocrine system from my "SLE" a bad form of Lupus. I'm hoping to find a few friends here to help with; or possibly relate to things to help get through the horrible days this has given me lately.
I"m an emotional "basket case", because my daily plasma readings are like a pingpong ball. They are here there and everywhere; and occasionally get "stuck" between 80-100 for hours at a time. And meanwhile;without alot of needed knowledge in my area for local doctors to do anything long term to get things more stable for me.
So;Thanks for letting me be a part of your group;and for giving me a resource that could lead to needed answers too. .......... Raegan
