Whatever happened to the idea of a DIABETES Group?
My husband mentioned that he saw a thread on it the other day, but I can't find it. Did it not get enough sponsors? Anyone know? Thanks.

1. I would join too.
I mostly go to diabeticgourmet.com and post there. But would like the DU base here of diabetics.

4. Well, we only need 10 people with stars
And that's 3 so far... anyone else? I'd certainly be cool with another place to discuss, offer suggestions, empathy, sympathy, understanding, etc....

5. I'm checking to see if I have a star
I'd be interested in the Diabetes Group.

6. I have a star and I have....
diabetes, and today my Dr. told me I have lung cancer.. so I would support such a group. Whatever I can do to alleviate the conditions that are inherent with Type 2 Diabetes would make me feel like my personal experience has not been in vain. I have done a lot of research and would be more than happy to share my findings with others. As for the cancer, I am not surprised as I knew something was wrong. I cannot have surgery as I also have congestive heart failure.. so take advantage of my offer..time could be a limiting factor!

9. Wow, GMD
I am so sorry to hear that news :hug: If we do get this group going, you will of course be a welcome voice there!

I'm wondering if we can't really do it, though, as threads get locked for giving medical advice. I wonder if we'd have to have a forum disclaimer?
