We don't go easy on anyone! Now get down on the floor and give me 20, soldier!





Just kidding. You'll find we're an easy crowd. No question is a stupid/dumb question, ask away.

BTW, welcome.

Welcome to the Diabetes Forum!! You'll find there is no need to be nervous. Most of us say stupid things once in awhile but none of us are stupid. There's always someone here that will have an answer for you. Post often with questions, answers, suggestions, and fun.

Talking

Hello and Welcome. For the most part we are a usually well behaved group (well, most of us are. There are exceptions. LOL)
Ask away. I'm sure one if not all of us have experienced what you may be asking.

Welcome to our home Sutrer.... pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. The Great and Powerful Oz is really Tony.

Great site! Enjoy yourself and ask away......
