Highs and lows

I just love my monthly hormone fluctuations. I'm sure any women out there understand that time of month and diabetes can slightly wreck havoc. Granted I typically know what to expect, but other times, such as yesterday my blood sugars go up for no good reason. I check my carbs, give the proper insulin, eat, and it still stays high. This bothered me more yesterday cause I got the nice headache, peeing a lot, and slightly blurred vision...I made sure to give extra insulin and it seemed to go down, as I felt better and was not too off the charts next time I checked my bloodsugar.

Possible sigh of relief

Here is a link to a lovely article on Dr Donnica.com
http://www.drdonnica.com/news/00004814.htm and what this article talks about is a possible reverse to autoimmune diseases. Granted this stuff is in the first stages and they are only testing it in mice, but for our future ancestors could it be a cure?
