Squats we still wanna know your take on diabetes and sin...you made the statement on here now be man enough to back it up on here..,..

Well Mr. Squats, we're all sorry, you're sorry you were born a Jew...you make a stupid uncareing statement about diabetes being Gods punshment for your orginal sin concept and you got called on it. so be a man and stop your whining.

I said "many posts here are proof positive of original sin." Here are some "Faith, why don't you pray away your husband's gout?" "GO SQUAT ON A BBQ FORK AND SHUT UP YOURSELF." "The Jews that own the 135 ft boat...." "THIS IS NOT A RELIGIOUS CHAT PLEASE TAKE THAT J STUFF ELSEWHERE..." "Why don't you all three go back to DHD and sniff each other?" "Oct 1 wife swap?" The hatred, bigotry, and foolishness in the Quotes above proves my point. I will not answer the question re Diabetes and sin..."This is not a religious chat." Therefore, do what you can with your son's question! The Jew hating Baptist hating evident in anonymous posts here is an expression of evil as are the sexual inuendos. So are the uncaring responses to serious questions. Back to the 6 year old son, post an e-mail addy! I will not answer that here! Post a name too! Areal name, but you won't! You are an immoral, unethical sleaze with no sense of civil decency at all In conclusion, I was not addressing sin and diabetes. I was evaluating the hate posted on here. I am sick of it! I am of Jewish Background and I find this extremely offensive.

Mr.Squats , how do I explain to my 6 year old son that his disease is caused by sin ? Please help me on this.

On Sun Sep 15 08:19:22 2002 () said:
Squats please give us proof that posts here are caused by original sin and how you pointing that out helps people on here with diabetes. WE don't understand please explain your statement relating sin and diabetes.

Diabetes is God's punishment for original sin.

As an aside, many posts here are proof positive of religious guilt and nonsense.

Faith: I too have had to fast; it is no fun. Fortunately, the surgeries were successful. Gout and Diabetes is no fun either, I am sure. As an aside, like many other things in this world, many posts here are proof positive of original sin.

FAith while you're doing the next gout prayer would you please do a new car prayer for me ?

Squats, I have had surgery several times since being a Type I. It is always a risky time. The last time, (July), my fasting was high, (over 200), and I started to pump in one (1) unit of insulin and the doctor stopped me. He said they would rather have you high in surgery, then be too low. I can understand that! I've never tried fasting, and don't think I would, even if it was part of my faith, it would just be too risky for a Type I.

BTW, I have prayed for my husbands gout, and he hasn't had an attack in I don't know how long. My not be a cure, but, I never asked for one in he first place. Mainly, I prayed for His will to be done.

Yeah, that single word post does bother me! I cannot keep children off the 'puter, but just consider the source I guess!

On Sat Sep 14 17:53:10 2002 () said:
Hmmmm..Squats, you have meantioned 'mark' several times before, it must bother you

On Sat Sep 14 14:43:33 2002 Squats () said:
The word "mark" without verbal context! What is that about? Marking down bg readings? Taking note of bad advice? Insulin dosage markings on syringes? Warnings on meds? Again, what is that about? And from whom? A 6 year old. probably. His/her mommy and daddy shough not allow computer usage. After all, this is (supposed to be) a site to discuss Diabetes. Hopefully someone's mommy and daddy will correct their child.

On Sat Sep 14 11:33:03 2002 () said:
Faith why don't you just pray away the gout ?

VI: I should have added that meds for type 2's (oral) are NOT insulin, but counteract insulin resistance, increase pancreatic oiutput of natural insulin or prevent carb absorption. Sorry I failed to mention it. Type 1's on insulin need to be very careful. I too have had surgery requiring overnight fasting. I do not like it.

The Jews that own the 135 ft boat that gave the flag to the firefighters to put on the WTC now want to be paid for it...this makes me mad and screws up my BG with stress.

On Fri Sep 13 17:15:16 2002 () said:
Squats is crazy, his BP meds are reacting with his weightlifters chemical supplements, Now it looks like if the Christian Baptists are not trying to take over this site the Jews are...why don't you all three go back to DHD and sniff each other

Squats: how can fasting adversely affect diabetes? If I know I am not going to be eating, for example, pre-surgery or pre-blood test for cholesterol (a fasting blood test), I don't take my medications (I am Type 2) to avoid making my system produce more insulin. Maybe fasting impacts only Type 1's? I remember having to fast for surgery a couple of years ago -- I didn't eat anything from Sat. dinner until Monday b'fast (and then only chicken broth and jello). My bs numbers never dropped below 90 and I seem to remember I continued to take my same meds. I was sure it would have dropped a lot lower, but it didn't. Wonder why?

SQUATS>>>>>>>GO SQUAT ON A BBQ FORK AND SHUT UP YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Fri Sep 13 15:08:26 2002 Squats () said:
We have Jew haters here, too? Since Yom Kippur is a Day of Fasting, it is relevant to Diabetes! Some Jewish Diabetics may want to try it, but MUST SEE THEIR CDE FIRST!!!!!!!! Fasting can be dangerous. Jew haters, please shut up.

On Fri Sep 13 14:59:29 2002 () said:
They don't even bathe during yom kippur? How odd!!!!!

On Fri Sep 13 14:55:31 2002 Faith () said:
14:46:16 - Thank you for your post. And I too thank the person for the Yom Kippur info.

On Fri Sep 13 14:46:16 2002 VI () said:
Faith, I hope your husband recovers. This can be a frightening time for you both. Hopefully, the doctors can determine what is causing the problem and fix it. // Thank you to 13:21:21 for the info on Yom Kippur. It was very interesting to read. // Squats: If the dizziness does not pass, call your doctor. Your medication may be too strong a dose or it may be releasing into your system too fast. On rare occasions I have dizziness, but it usually passes in less than 5 or 10 minutes.

My diabetes would be much better if we would stop supporting the Jew aggressors illegal takeover of the rightful Palestine homeland.

Yom Kippur is probably the most important holiday of the Jewish year. Many Jews who do not observe any other Jewish custom will refrain from work, fast and/or attend synagogue services on this day. Yom Kippur occurs on the 10th day of Tishri. The holiday is instituted at Leviticus 23:26 et seq. The name "Yom Kippur" means "Day of Atonement," and that pretty much explains what the holiday is. It is a day set aside to "afflict the soul," to atone for the sins of the past year. In Days of Awe, I mentioned the "books" in which God inscribes all of our names. On Yom Kippur, the judgment entered in these books is sealed. This day is, essentially, your last appeal, your last chance to change the judgment, to demonstrate your repentance and make amends. As I noted in Days of Awe, Yom Kippur atones only for sins between man and God, not for sins against another person. To atone for sins against another person, you must first seek reconciliation with that person, righting the wrongs you committed against them if possible. That must all be done before Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur is a complete Sabbath; no work can be performed on that day. It is well-known that you are supposed to refrain from eating and drinking (even water) on Yom Kippur. It is a complete, 25-hour fast beginning before sunset on the evening before Yom Kippur and ending after nightfall on the day of Yom Kippur. The Talmud also specifies additional restrictions that are less well-known: washing and bathing, anointing one's body (with cosmetics, deodorants, etc.), wearing leather shoes (Orthodox Jews routinely wear canvas sneakers under their dress clothes on Yom Kippur), and engaging in sexual relations are all prohibited on Yom Kippur. As always, any of these restrictions can be lifted where a threat to life or health is involved. In fact, children under the age of nine and women in childbirth (from the time labor begins until three days after birth) are not permitted to fast, even if they want to. Older children and women from the third to the seventh day after childbirth are permitted to fast, but are permitted to break the fast if they feel the need to do so. People with other illnesses should consult a physician and a rabbi for advice. Most of the holiday is spent in the synagogue, in prayer. In Orthodox synagogues, services begin early in the morning (8 or 9 AM) and continue until about 3 PM. People then usually go home for an afternoon nap and return around 5 or 6 PM for the afternoon and evening services, which continue until nightfall. The services end at nightfall, with the blowing of the tekiah gedolah, a long blast on the shofar. See Rosh Hashanah for more about the shofar and its characteristic blasts. It is customary to wear white on the holiday, which symbolizes purity and calls to mind the promise that our sins shall be made as white as snow (Is. 1:18). Some people wear a kittel, the white robe in which the dead are buried.

YOM KIPPUR IS A GREAT DAY FOR EVERYONE

On Fri Sep 13 12:59:01 2002 Dizziness (To Squats) said:
Hi. When I first went on Acupril I had dizziness and started to notice water retention in my ankles. I was put on Acupril for kidney protection not a high blood pressure problem. It took about 3-4 months to lose the water and everything has returned to normal. My endo wasn't surprized when I told him and told me I didn't want to be on waterpills (?) so give it time and see what happened. It just settled for me and no more problem with them.

An update on the problem my husband has been having with his kidney's. He saw a specialist today, and he told John his kidney's are diffently NOT functioning at the numbers it should be. They are not really sure what is causing this, but, he is not to go back on Glucophage. the kidneys have to filter Glucophage through them, so any less work they have to do - the better. They, (the kidneys), are working any where from 50-70% of what they are suppose to be doing.

He will also have to pull back on the amount of meds he takes for the gout. It, (the meds), may be the culprit.

Why post ANYTHING about Diabetes? One question was asked about glyburide, which I do not take, but one response. I do have a question about blood pressure meds. I am on them for the first time in my life. I was dizzy at first, but better now. How have some of you dealt with the dizzyness?
