I think that I may have an anxiety disorder and in hopes of helping me make a pre-physician visit self diagnosis, I was hoping that I could hear a few stories from others who have suffered with anxiety. What kinds of symptoms did you have that made you think you might have problematic anxiety? What success have you had with any medications that your doctor has enrolled you in? Thanks in advance!!

My husband was recently diagnosed with Type II Diabetes. We immediately made diet changes which weren’t too hard because it already consisted of whole grains, fiber, lean meats, fruits, vegetables, etc.

I was surprised when on the last physician visit, the doctor told us that my husband would never be able to control his diabetes with diet and exercise. I was shocked because that is all you read. His sugars were in the 160 range and with the pill he has now taken for four days it is in the 130 range.

I guess my question is (1) can this be controlled with diet and exercise, (2) what should his glucose readings be with the medication, and (3) have others out there had sucess with the Janumet? I’m a bit concerned because it is a fairly newer drug.

Thanks!
