Obesity surgery can caure diabetes. Patients who opt for surgery to sculp and reduce their stomachs are more likely to see their diabetes disappear on the next two years than standard care. Reports said that most of them were able to stop taking diabetes drugs and were able to obtain normal blood test after the surgery. Stomach band surgery, gastric bypass surgery or stomach stapling are the most common procedures. Diabetes is a chronic progressive disease but these operations presents a realistic hope for curing most patients. Weight loss and maintaining desirable weight should be the goal of every person affected by diabetes. Buy a treadmill and try to walk for about an hour a day for a start. Soon there will be changes. Treadmill is cheaper than meds for sure in the long run.

Scientist at a Toronto hospital say they have proof the body's nervous system helps trigger diabetes. A diabetic mice became healthy virtually overnight after researchers injected a substance, capsaicin which is the active ingredient in hot chili pepper, to counteract the effect of malfunctioning pain neurons in the pancreas. Mice with diabetes suddenly didn't have diabetes anymore. Nerves likely play a role in other chronic inflammatory condition like asthma and Crohn's disease. Insulin replacement therapy is the only treatment of Type 1 but has no capability to prevent side effects like heart attacks to kidney failure. We may have hope after all. Many people around the world are sick with diabetes and they just don't know what to do with the disease because ultimately once you contract the disease it seems that your days could be numbered if you don't have the funds to buy insulin injections. True or not there is hope and let's pray for it.

I never knew that urinating a lot is already a form of disorder. I was made to understand that frequency is directly proportional to fluids intake. I for one urinates a lot and even if we were travelling, we have to stop in a gasoline station or any fast food service like Jollibee just to urinate. It was very hard for me to make it through the night without urinating and drinking water. I often wake up four to five times because of this and I was thinking it was just a hard habit to break. Yesterday I wrote an essay about diabetes and accidentally discovered this inconvenient urinating habit as one of diabetes type of disease. My brother was just admitted to the hospital due to vomitting and he was diagnosed of diabetes. My father died of diabetes complications. And now I have this type which enables me to drink a lot of water and urinate the same amount. It feels like taking it in at this moment and then a few seconds it goes out in the form of urine. The only consolation that I have is that, it is not as severe as the other types as long as I keep on drinking fluids I will not become dehydrated. Still it worries me if this will sort of upgrade to the higher class. May I know from the readers if they have friends that have experienced this kind of illness? What have they been doing? What is the diet plan that they are following? Any comment is greatly appreciated.
