My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article youtube.com/post/UgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0β¦ At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.

This is a very useful refresher presentation for me, since I have been taking combinations of these medications for a number of years. Understanding their mechanisms of action often allows me to identify causation of changes in my conditions. I can then communicate more intelligently with my physicians.

I wish I had found these videos while I was taking pharmacology. You just put 4wks of frustration and confusion into a nice bubble for me as I am currently studying CV diseases, diagnoses and treatments. Thank you so much. I have already bookmarked the diabetes information for next month.
