I have worked at a suicide hotline for about 2 years now and I have found that there are many misconceptions about suicide and crisis hotline workers and volunteers. I can’t speak for every organization, but I hope that I can address a few of the general concerns that I see now so that you feel mor

After 2 years and 4 denials to see an endocrinologist as an uncontrolled T2D, I finally got them to accept the referral after asking for a formal denial letter so I could go self-pay to an out of network hospital system a few counties away.

I was diagnosed with T2 back in November and it gave me a scare. I’m in the morbidly obese category and on liraglutide to help. I don’t think it’s working well for me but that’s a separate issue. I feel like I need another kick, I haven’t received a lot of support from my GP (in the UK) and I am try

For the past 5 months I have been working really hard on my diet and fitness level where i've pretty much got it in lock down. I've integrated healthy eating and going into the gym in a very sustainable way where it's a part of me now. It is kind of surreal to think now there were days on end I woul

It works by helping the pancreas to release the right amount of insulin when blood sugar levels are high. Liraglutide injection also slows the emptying of the stomach and may decrease appetite and cause weight loss. It's been a couple of days and I'm having some trouble with nausea. I've found that

Hey everyone. Quick disclaimer that I do not have T2D (though was pre-T2D a few years ago). I understand that internet advice cannot substitute for medical professionals' words, but I was hoping if others in /r/diabetes have had success with dealing with a situation like my father's. He was diagnos
