 I saw the endocriologist and he said I have an insulin resistance
problem and more that likely celiac. He said all of this runs together
including the asthma. I have about 9 tests they are going to run on me
on Monday, including the glucose tolerance and gladin (sp?) tests.

Hi Vivian~ Sorry to hear of the landslide of medical problems- hang in
there!

I do know that the steroids used for keeping severe asthma in check do
wreak havoc on blood glucose levels. It could be the meds are going to
tamper with your ability to keep bg levels in stable ranges, since it
appears the steroids are here to stay for the asthma treatment  =  /

I have heard of steroids being the precursor to diabetes, like causing
or spawining the condition. There are so many factors, like does
diabetes run in your family etc....


Has anyone else experienced anything like this...I feel so wonderful!

>>>No but I'm pretty sure I don't have the best circulation & have been
dealing w/ dry cracked feet, and waking up with hands/arms having "pins &
needles feeling" from not getting circulation.


My whole life has been eczema, sinus, asthma, hair falling out, dry skin
and consipation. I really feel all of this has been for the best and
only more to come....

>>>It's nice to find an up side to a health problem  =  >
It could be all the meds you had to take for other conditions are making
the other problems surface????


Has anyone experienced anything like this?

>>>>>Nope, but I have been working with different lotions and & creams & the
sandpaper-like foot file to get my feet into better condition.

Keep us posted on how your  test results come back!
