Hello, how are I am Claudio, I wanted to tell you that I am 29 years old and recently I did blood exams because I was very overweight and in my family there were many diabetes history.The point is that all my exams came out good except glycemia the basal gave 150 and the other 280, they pointed out that I had to go see a specialist because I had diabetes, I have thousands of questions that I hope have the goodness of answering me.Can a relative told me that the safest thing is to give me pills and not insulin, is that possible? Is the worst fear of my life the needles I will always have to be taking blood? If I take care of myself and I have my normal glycemiaI still have diabetes?, and finally I have 2 young children, I can live a long and healthy life if I take care of or I will necessarily suffer any of the diseases that diabetes entails? Thank you very much for your attention.

Hi Clark
According to what you say, it seems that you have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. According to this diagnosis, the treatment is usually: - Diet (if you have overweight it is urgent that you rever - exercise - Diabetological education - Oral antidiabetics (most likely metformin) - Tension control, cholesterol, triglycerides
Type 2 diabetes is usually started with pills (oral antidiabetics).Over time it can happen that the pills are not enough to control glycemia so it would be necessary to inject insulin.
Insulin is injected, but it has nothing to do with blood, the injection is subcutaneous. If there are 10-11 year old children who do it alone, why weren't you going to be capable?
Diabetes is not reversible, once what needs to be done is to control the best one can and meet the treatment parameters.
Although it does not seem, diabetes is deadly, in Spain it is the sixth cause of death, however it is widely demonstrated that with adequate control of the disease the risks derived from diabetes are minimal, and we end up having the same health problems asAny other person.
