Mandy: Zestril is normally used to treat high blood pressure. However, tests have shown that when diabetics take high blood pressure medication, it helps reduce the onset of kidney disease or damage from diabetes. Many doctors are starting to prescribe high blood pressure drugs for diabetics to help prevent kidney disease or failure.

Right at 24 hours ago I posed a question here and really sincerely hoped that some one from the group of non-believing radicals that post on here would try and explain their actions. So far, nada, zero, zip, zilch, nothing has been explained. I guess that it was to much to hope for. A few kind souls have tried to explain what they think has caused all the furor. But no one from the attack crowd has attempted to explain anything. Oh well!!

RE: Becoming a diabetes educator. Not as easy as you would think - I don't know of any hospitals that don't require an RN as a prerequisite. Lots of chemistry and physiology involved, not to mention the need to understand the diabetes disease process as it affects other disease processes and vice-versa. If you truly want to become a CDE - go for it! Just be aware that the job of a CDE goes far beyond strictly the parameters of diabetes.

Bill, you really should talk to your doctor. You may need to cut back on your insulin. The type of work you do will burn up a LOT of carbs. Make sure you keep some Glucose tablets w/you at all times. I'd rather have highs than lows. (Not that I want either one!)

I would like to become a certified diabetes educator. I have some background knowledge about diabetes, but I would like to know more. For instance, reading food labels, determining the foods that your body chemistry recognizes when one becomes diabetic.

I'm sure the first name is Marc...but are you sure about the "C" as the last initial? I thought he was/is Marc W.

On Thu Mar 21 07:53:06 2002 About Marc C () said:
The post about his behavior is 100% accurate. For years he claimed (lied?) that he NEVER posted anonmyously, but then posts very similar to his style appeared -- attacking other people for no reason -- all without a name. It gradually got worse until nearly every regular here was chased away or went anonmymous themselves to try to avoid Marc's attacks. He has not, however, single-handedly ruined this chat. He's has help from others, but he was the original psycho on this board.

I sure would like to think it is not Marc C who is causing the chat commotion. There were a lot of participants who went to great lengths to console and help him through and with his vision problems. A lot of participants were also very kind and informative to him during his "to pump or not to pump" decision making process. I enjoyed his humor and his friendly exchanges with Bambi(?){memory might need a jumpstart but i think i have the right name}. He shared a lot of his feelings and enough of his daily life with us that I appreciate his person. The golfing stories would sometimes still have me chuckling into the evening hours. I hope that you are wrong about who you feel is responsible but if you have gone to all the effort of checking and recording you are probably not wrong.

I am 23 years old and I just recently got diagnosed with type I diabetes. I work construction, and I have a hard time keeping my blood sugar levels above 80. Many time I get down in the 50-60 range. My question is how often should I eat something with carbohydrate in it to keep my levels up.

Well, same-o, same-o! I just now got a chance to check in for the day. Last night our little town, (and numerous other), were hit by horrible thunder storms and hail storm. I'm talking about hail as big as a baseball to a softball. We had three cars damaged, (with only two fully insured). My convertible has no back window and the top is torn up, plus the huge dents all over. One window in our house was broken, the others are plexiglass. The hail came through the screen and the window of my bathroom. This town looks like it had gone through another tornado. Needless to say the stress of all this has affected both my husbands and my BG's. WHAT'S NEXT???

On Wed Mar 20 15:12:40 2002 Something to think about... () said:
Better Not Drop That Egg "The Easter story is nothing but a myth," Jimmy's high school science teacher announced to his class a few days before Easter break. "Jesus not only didn't rise from the grave," he continued, "but there's no God in heaven who would allow his son to be crucified in the first place." "Sir, I believe in God," Jimmy protested. "And I believe in the resurrection! "Jimmy, you can believe what you wish to, of course," the teacher replied. "However, the real world excludes the possibility of miraculous events such as the resurrection. The resurrection is a scientific impossibility. No one who believes in miracles can also respect science." "God isn't limited by science," Jimmy responded. "He created science!" Engaged by Jimmy's outspoken faith, the teacher proposed a scientific experiment. Reaching into his refrigerator, he produced a raw egg and held it up. "I'm going to drop this egg on the floor," he stated. "Gravity will pull it toward the floor with such force that the egg will most certainly break." Fixing Jimmy with a look of challenge, he concluded his proposal. "Now Jimmy, I want you to pray a prayer right now and ask your God to keep this egg from breaking when it hits the floor. If he can do that, then you'll have proven your point, and I'll have to admit that there's a God." After pondering the challenge for a moment, Jimmy slowly stood to pray. "Dear Heavenly Father," he began. "I pray that when my teacher drops the egg... it will break into a hundred pieces! And also, Lord, I pray that when the egg does break, my teacher will have a heart attack and die! Amen." After a unison gasp, the stunned class sat in silent expectation. For a moment the teacher did nothing. At last he looked at Jimmy and then at the egg. Without a word he carefully put the egg back in the refrigerator. "Class dismissed," the teacher said and sat down to clear his desk. The teacher apparently believed in God more than he thought he did. Many people, like that teacher, deny that God exists, yet they run from him, question him, and attack him whenever they get the chance. Jimmy knew God wouldn't strike his teacher dead, but he also knew that his teacher wouldn't bet his life on it. As the old saying goes, "There are no atheists in foxholes." When your life is on the line, the idea of God suddenly makes a lot more sense.

On Wed Mar 20 14:20:44 2002 My Answer To: (Can anyone explain to me what they have done to deserve the treatment they recieve here? ) said:
Maybe 4 but possibly 5, so safe to say 4 or 5 years ago this was a nice informative pleasant place to come and read. The information was offered by individuals from their personal diabetes treatment and was relevant to the stage of the disease they were at. People would listen to what other people offered, consult their own endo or care provider with what they had heard, and a lot of people seemed to be learning from what was offered. Areas to explore with new information and new promises were posted and usually included websites to visit. People who had experienced a proceedure were more than willing to coach and guide someone with the first hand knowledge they had gained. Squabbling was present but usually was nipped quickly and buried but not always forgotten. Personal controversy always seemed to resurface. I can't remember the element of religion not being here. It was low key and respected. Once in a while there would be a reminder to keep it low key and everyone did appeared to do their best to comply. I always felt that there was a group setting to this site and at times it actually appeared to divide itself into teams. Sort of like the "good guys" versus the "bad guys" but was more like the "regulars" bonding together and intimidating people. I think the breakdown of this site resulted from the "regulars" insulting or intimidating someone who found this site to be helpful. I think that this person is showing the bitterness that the exclusion has caused them by making it no longer enjoyable for anyone. Please regard the above post as my opinion.

I am confused. I have been reading here for 3 years. I seldom if ever post. But I now feel that I must. In the period that I have been reading I have not read one time where the so called ring kissers and religionists have tried to convert one person to their belief system. They have not one time made hateful comments about the intelligence of the non-believers. They have never questioned the motives of the skeptics. They have never requested donations to any of their causes. They have have never invited some one else to one of their meetings. They have done their best to respect the rights of others to believe or disbelieve what ever they choose. They have even expressed love for those who have so totally disrespected them. Yet they are attacked in the most hateful vile ways possible by those who disrespect their belief systems. They are accused of being the village idiots and as their beliefs command they do not respond in like terms. Can anyone explain to me what they have done to deserve the treatment they recieve here? Please do not respond with rantings and ravings. I am looking for some logical explanation for your actions. The comments made here are like the previous posting that was supposed to "PROVE" some thing. And it offered no proof of anything, just the rantings of a nonbeliever. Can some one help me?

The joke about the man who went to the bank and asked for the loan is not offensive. Any ethnic group or religious group could have been used to replace the text Jewish and would not have altered the context of the joke. A person could have been personally offended by it but a race or religion was not slighted by it. It is hard to grasp sometimes that the computer is a form of communication that has invited the whole world to chat. For this reason we should all try that much harder when using it to realize that we are communicating with a very large diverse group.

On Wed Mar 20 11:08:24 2002 Pproof that religion is a myth???? Part of article below. reast is at http://www.neo-tech.com/proof/ (brave enough to read it????????????) said:
Religious teachings are very seductive. They hold out the promise of wisdom. This is especially enticing to someone who has problems in life. You think you are going to gain something extremely important. Religious teachings are filled with spiritual mysteries that need solving. And solving mysteries is something everyone likes to do. Indeed, mystery is a real drawing power of all forms of mysticism. People who go into the spiritual on a deep level do so because they are seeking honesty, enlightenment, fairness. They desire a world where honesty prevails, where fairness and compassion are the rules. They're seeking an ideal way to live and deal with others. But, what they don't realize is the ultimate wisdom they seek is really a hoax. For, what the dedicated student of religion eventually discovers is the core of religion is in reality non-existent.
