Husband is diabetic and doesn't care?

If he controls his diabetes and takes care of himself there is no need for pain and suffering. The way he is going he will bring pain and suffering on himself. It is not a quick death it takes you piece by piece. I hope you can talk some sense into him. Good luck. High blood sugars make you feel fatigue.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Bless your heart for searching so hard to find a good answer.

One component of elevated blood sugars is you feel like crap all the time. you are grouchy and edgy. Strong minded people often have issues when they perceive a loss of control... I am betting these are playing major parts in the situation.

If he could get his sugar under tight control for just 2 weeks, he may see that he does have control over the situation and he would be able to feel well enough to rationally look and make some decisions.

How you get him there is however your call, use his mother, his friends, anything you think will sway him to 2 weeks of 20 minutes of aerobic exercise each morning and evening, eating right (low carbs, nothing white), checking his blood sugar every morning and every evening and adjusting accordingly. THEN if he decides he doesn't care or want to grab that ox by the horns, it is his call and you must make your decisions as well.

Bless you and hang in there. do know it may not be the man you married talking to you right now but a crusty brittle hardened lump of flesh.

my husband is also tye 2. However he is the opposite extreme. He first decided to stop eating. which obviously didnt work. Then he decided to eliminate all carbs....that doesnt work either since carbs are in everything too. He finally went on insulin after his pills just didnt work for him. He suffered neuropathy in his back and legs. It got so bad he couldnt hardly get off the couch. He suffered from ED and as a wife that totally stinks!! He dropped weight down to 132 and looked like a sick old man (he just turned 40)....he turned everything around with the insulin. He was able to work out again. He as added 30 lbs of muscle and is up to 161 lbs and still in the same tiny size 30 waist jeans as he was when he weighed 132. He started having lows all the time no matter how much he ate. So back to the doctor he went...

After 8 months on insulin, his doctor just took him off his meal injections and is only having him do his Lantis daily shot now. He looks great and feels great, but is back to freaking out about food since he is scared he will go high again.

Its a terrible cycle.

The moral of my tale here is that your husband, no matter what you say, no matter what you do, you can not make him change his ways. Only he can do that. I advise if you have not already, attend a diabetes education class, even if he doesnt go with you. You will learn a lot and learn how you can help him without him even knowing that you are doing it by changing the foods you cook and buy to just being able to listen to him. Make sure he knows he is not alone in this. Stay strong!

His older years will be filled with suffering. Uncontrolled Diabetes will lead to so many other health problems. It's going to take a big toll on your life as well. You will be his caretaker. As his wife, you can not give up on helping him. Start by not keeping any bad foods in the house. See if there is someone in the community that can speak with him about the difficulties of getting old with uncontrolled diabetes. He needs to see what his lifestyle will lead to. Look online for pictures of people with complications of diabetes(feet problems, eyes, kidney, heart, wound healing). If nothing works, than you should consider leaving him. You should refuse to watch him kill himself.

I know that is tough. I'm living with a type 1 diabetes. What I should suggest is have a visiting nurse around the clock, bring in a bunch of educational videos, reading materials as to what will happen if he does not take care of himself. Let him know, if he does not cooperate, you have the right to put him some where to where they will be able to help him, and provide him the education he needs to take better care of himself and cooperate with you and your family.

Man that is so hard... Both my mom and dad have type 2 diabetes and it is very hard and sad... I don't know what to tell you because you can tell him and tell him but it is up to him... It is his health not yours (I don't mean it in a bad way, but it's just you can't take his meds for him you know?) My mom since she was 12 she has been great with her meds, but my father is stubborn.... I do wish your husband can start watching himself more because it can be critical - God forbid... I hope & wish you and him well....

But I think you should tell him how heart you are..

No advice. My brother-in-law is the same way. My sister finds cookie packages in his car. He has been hospitalized several times to get him back on track. She makes the entire family eat his diet which gets them annoyed, but then he will sneak off and undo everything she has accomplished. You can't make him care. Not even a massive intervention with the whole family worked for long.

Nor can you make your husband care. As long as he is in the "poor little me" mode, there isn't much you can do.
