Out of Pod Experience

So I think that she have to take those medications that keep level of glucose below risk margin, also foods that have high glycemic index are prohibited in a diet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_index and eating small meals but often is better than eating big meals but less often. That will save the nerve from further damage. My mom have type 1 diabetes, but she do not have gastroparesis because of rather fast diagnosis.

you will want to have more fruits and veggies and avoid a lot of the complex stuff. So you need to skip on anything fried and excessive salty foods like ham.

If you cook stuff in oil use an olive oil, umm no more drinking, and keep all sodas out of the diet.

I hate to say it, but might as well gear up for a long campaign versus your insurance company. Reading the policy probably won't help, those things are finely-crafted to be completely vague and unintelligible. Calling to check coverage before getting the treatment helps. And calling after you get the confusing bill helps more. Sometimes make a determination that "whoops, you were covered after all." The scumbags.

I don't know much about diabetes, but when my mom had a terminal illness, taking probiotics really made her feel better. Apparently the replace fauna in the digestive system. Food is digested more easily and completely, and you get more complete nutrition from it. My was pretty doubtful taking some trendy New Agey holostic thing, but it turned out to be the one thing that really made her feel noticeably stronger and healthier.

Probiotics unfortunately would not help solving stomach paralysis. Maybe electrostimulation of the nerves, something similar to what they do with those guys.

But these "flora" tend to be actual bacteria, which is indeed "fauna". I need to find out what's up with that.......
