February 24th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 17 Comments »

My firend has type 1 diabetes and i kinda feel bad for her and she really hopes thay will find a cure soon. Does anyone know how close they are and about how much longer it could take??

They have been doing pancreas transplants for years. You have to be on the waiting list and could take years and also rejection possibilities. A friend of mine just got one after 20 years of waiting.

Can stem cells cure diabetes?

February 21st, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 4 Comments »

I’ve heard that in Thailand they use stem cells to cure different health conditions for years now. Not sure if it’s not a scam. Specially I’m interested in S-cells therapy for diabetes type 1.

Theoretically, stem cell transplants could potentially be a cure for diabetes in the future. However, such treatments are years away from clinical studies. There is a lot of interest and excitement about the use of stem cells for several diseases, but research is still in its infancy. ( Americans should thank George W Bush and the religious right wing branch of the Republican party for lagging behind the rest of the world in this important research. )

"Stem cell treatments" that are offered in some countries such as Mexico, Phillipines and Thailand can only be considered experimental, or more often outright fraud at this point. For example, I have a wealthy elderly patient who spends a lot of time in Mexico where he started "stem cell treatments" for his congestive heart failure. He brought several vials of a red liquid back and wanted me to continue his treatments. I had it analyzed and it was basically just vitamin B12 injectable. He paid several hundred dollars per vial for something that retails for a couple of dollars.

So…the science is not there yet.

i have one son type 1 and now i might have a 2 yr old and 11 yr old right now with prediabetes til we go to Dr

February 19th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 5 Comments »

how common is it to have more then one child with type 1 I have a 2 yr old and 11 yr old who goes to the Endocrinology the end of the month. it’s hard to wait to brick her little finger and have to wait that long to take them to the Dr. my nerves are a wreck waiting. There BS were 155-125 that was blood drawn . I have been checking them and noone have been over 125 so far and my son 11 has been having normal ranges or the meter reading low. Please let me know if you have any sites on more then one sibling in the same family having type 1 diabetes. Thanks and all I do is Pray and hope thay come up with a cure for type 1 my oldest has had it since 4 th grade and now is in 10 th your all in my prayers.

I am a type 1 diabetic and I was diagnoised as an adult (at 29) I asked my endocrinoligist and my childrens doctor about the likely hood of my kids getting it. I was told that type 1 there is a 3 – 5 % chance and if I were type 2 then the odds jump to 30 +%. But I do have friends that have more then 1 type 1 in their family. And I have read stories about siblings having it in diabetic magazines. Good luck

I need help with my diabetes type 1 and my psoriasis!!!!!!?

February 17th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 1 Comment »

Ok my father has type 1 diabetes and psoriasis very badly on his back, head, and underarms. He was taking some kind of diabetic Medication called Avandia 8mg., we believe thats what it was called. He has switched doctors and the one he has now wont prescribe him that medication because it is not yet proven to help with psoriasis. But I have took it before and it made my psoriasis go away pretty much completly. Do you know of any kind of medication that is proven to work for severe psoriasis. I would prefer a site that has Avandia for a decent price. Also has anyone else tried this medication or know anyone that has, if so what was the results/side affects. Serious answers only please!
Also if possible do you know of a site that takes medicaid insurance located in Bristol Virginia for Avandia or any other medication that is proven to cure psoriasis.

I had a rash over my knees, elbows and ankle bones that the doctor said was psoraisis. It did not respond to psoraisis medications that were prescribed. It did go away completely when my blood sugar control improved. I did not take Avandia though. I was prescribed Novolog and Lantus insulins for my diabetes. Perhaps it was just the fact that improved blood sugar control helped the rash resolve.

type 1 diabetes?

February 16th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 6 Comments »

hi there do you think they will ever find a cure for diabetes if so how long do you think it will take till they do

i think they will they are getting closer everyday . i got diabetes when i was 7 ans now i am 37 they have come a long way in that time.when everything that is available to the researchers these days they will come up with one i think in the next 10 years.

which diabetes they’re talking about curing type 1 or type 2?

February 15th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 4 Comments »


there is currently no cure for either but research is on the way. the complex pathology of these two diseases makes "cure" almost impossible because the causes vary and so treatment must address each cause individually. The only known cure for Type 2 Diabetes is weight loss, exercise, and lifestyle change, if patient is obese, while the symptoms are managed by reduced glucose consumption if beta islet cells are still functional and insulin supplementation if the patient has developed insulin insensitivity. There is no comprehensive cure for Type 1 Diabetes other than management of symptoms through insulin replacement and constant monitoring of blood glucose. Experimental treatments for T1D uses immune suppression strategies for autoimmune T1D and stem cell therapy for people with total pancreatic islet loss.

Do not underestimate diet and exercise as even as low as 10% drop in weight in NIDDM (T2D), obese patients can lead to complete remission of Type 2 Diabetes as long as damage to the pancreas are not as far gone.

do u know about the new way for cure of diabetes type 1 for children has 7 years old?

February 14th, 2010 -- Posted in Cure for Type 1 Diabetes | 4 Comments »

i looking for definite cure, not about control of diabeted type 1. please informe me for any vaccine or drug for definite cure. thankf

At this time, there IS NO DEFINITE CURE.

But on the horizon are some new possibilities that are STILL in the animal testing stages.

The first uses adult stem cells to regrow the Islet Cells in your pancreas that produce insulin. This has worked IN MICE — but is a LONG way from being given to humans. IF this proves effective in HUMANS, then a commercial treatment is still 15-20 years away.

A Pancreas Transplant is a possibility, but is very very dangerous. Pancreas Transplant is the least effective of all the transplanted organ. Heart transplants easily live 10-15 years longer. Kidney transplants live 15-30 years longer.

But pancreas transplant live only 5-7 years longer. In fact, more than 50% of the patients are dead within 5 years. Therefore, most doctors will NOT do a pancreas transplant unless the patient is going to die anyway. In this case, even a couple of years longer is better than nothing.

But Type 1 Diabetes in a 7-year-old is EASILY treatable with insulin, diet, and exercise. NO doctor would recommend a transplant to an otherwise healthy patient!

There are some other possibilities, but they are are even more unsure, and have MANY years of experiment to go through before humans can be involved.

In the mean time, the 7-year-old needs to learn what CAN and CANNOT be eaten, and that the medication are KEEPING HER ALIVE, and without them shot she WILL die.

Diet is also very important to a diabetic. We must watch our intake of sugar and also carbohydrates, such as bread, pasta, and potatoes.
