Answer: If a person with whom you have long-term relationship – yet he should tell about your diabetes. In the situation when it first acquaintance – you can not "ogoroshivat" the young man's information on diabetes. To eat during a walk – you can advance to bring in a bag or "ryukzachke" apples or cakes, for example. At the same time when it will be necessary – to eat and to treat him. In the extreme case, you can play the "girl who wishes that people must obey" – you can always say "I want to have – just to die, let's buy a pie!" (If there is a place where you can buy the right food).

Question: I am interested in life expectancy for diabetic first type, which does not comply with diet and who are dieting. What usually happens death in diabetes mellitus.
Answer: When diabetes becomes very topical the thesis "A man is master of its destiny." It is not just a diet: with the SD type 1 can be virtually any product cover insulin properly calculating this figure and it does not prevent the increase of sugar. But people with diabetes need many things to do to control my sugar (to calculate units of grain for food, often to measure the sugar properly adjust the dose of insulin, to spend money on self-control and the necessary examination, communication with the good doctor, no smoking, etc. ). As a result – among the ill as a teenager I had met both men, more or less free from the complications of diabetes in 50 years, and survived to severe complications of diabetes (blindness, hemodialysis, etc.) for 10-15 years. In general, the first cause of mortality in the SD 1 and type 2 – cardio-vascular complications (diabetes – a serious risk factor for atherosclerosis, hypertension, etc.).

Question: My nephew suspected CD, started when he began to drink a lot of water, and often go to the toilet at night, he was three years. Passed the blood and urine tests – blood sugar high morning measured his glucometer value 18. tomorrow it is put in the hospital for examination. I am very afraid that he still Md 1 st type, help, whether it can be healthy, how to treat, what to do. His mom (my sister) she endocrinologist tells us nothing, for it is a shock. She believes that everything is hopeless, because it is very difficult to understand what happened, I also have the power to pull them from the disease, tell me what to do
Answer: It seems that for the diagnosis of "diabetes" is founded. The children in the vast majority of cases there is a type 1 diabetes (also known as juvenile, who is also insulin-dependent). Because this disease impaired endogenous insulin, it must be introduced in the form of injections. In very rare cases, children may find other types of diabetes (including those not requiring insulin), but this usually occurs in adolescents with marked obesity, and glucose levels in these forms is not increased so much so that in your situation that is unlikely. But now, it's better to spend power to overcome the psychological shock, and then to learn how to properly manage the level of sugar with an accurate calculation of doses of insulin. Modern methods of management of diabetes can, by measuring the level of sugar and introducing insulin in the right quantity, to subdue the level of sugar and keep it at a level very close to the nondiabetic. This is the key to good health, lack of diabetes-related complications, there is no limitation in choosing a profession, a lack of disability, etc. In order to well manage my sugar, be sure to get good training program "Diabetes School" (about how to select a place for training, was in the FAQ section "Diabetes in children"). In general, look at the answers to frequently asked questions in other sections – you lot will become clear. You can expect that 5-10 years are available to more radical methods of treatment of diabetes (artificial pancreas or transplant beta cells (not yet solved the problem of exclusion)). But to wait until they become free from the complications of diabetes, we must now learn to control the level of sugar in the existing methods of today.

Question: 16 years old boy + diabetes and problems in the family = guy must be saved. It needs a psychologist specializing in adolescents with diabetes. Very difficult situation in the family, but to do something necessary. Knocking on it can not. Mom anyway. Pope ready for anything. Running around in circles.

Answer: 16 years, is "flourishing" puberty, which is characterized by mental and physical changes in the organism. In such situations require full-time medical consultation psychiatrist-psychotherapist. Psychologist – does not have enough education to deal with such problems.
