Happy belated birthday Arrgy.

Yeah. I'm thinking of suing the jerk. I had half a life and he ruined it. This was the first time I didn't go out with my family for my birthday. Yeah. I'm royally pissed. I spend every day with a close pin holding my shirt up, off the side so it's touch doesn't burn.
As far as support. What's the difference from some of the posters here and some flakey forum. Americans are tired and numb. They close their bubble to the outside other than to poke a stick for entertainment.
Happy belated birthday Arrgy.

I just looked up the symptoms of Pancreatitis. What you described, Arggy, fits to a T.
Check it out.

I never mentioned acute pain in my pancreas. Why are people so disconnected with the words written? Shouldn't a medical forum be about reality? If you can't add something relevant, why post. I can go to proxywhore.com and get these results. I could have been of help here but stupid ankle biters, like you have, turn me right off. Oh well. Endo appt. tomorrow.
Thanks, Jan

Arggy-
I am sorry you didn't like my post. No, you didn't mention pain in the pancreas. You said that you had pain radiating from front
to back; difficulty sleeping, and other things that are the same symptoms as pancreatitis. You continue to dismiss any ideas
that don't fit your self diagnosis of D1.5. We are only trying to help and you just want to be told you are right.
Calling me "stupid" was unnecessary.
Good luck with your endo appointment. But, remember, he may not tell you want you want to hear. Keep an
open mind and you might actually learn something that will help you.

Some essentials for my blood sugar control: dosing via i:c ratio and cf • basal testing when needed • daily 40 minutes moderate exercise (or close) • carbs somewhere below 120g currently • only eating carbs and carb/fat combos that do not cause a problem spike, with or without insulin.
It appears this thread has run it's course. Members on Diabetes Forums are here to help and support. However, diagnosis comes from your physician. If you are unhappy with your M.D., it is recommended that you find a new one who is more helpful and understanding.
I hope you get to the bottom of the pain and lack of help from your M.D. Rude posts to members who are trying to help you with the vast knowledge base that is here on the forum won't help you nor does it fit with the purpose of support on this forum.
