1. don't be afraid of insulin jabs. They are unlike any other injection you have ever had or any other you will ever have. That is because they are utterly and completely pain free! I've had quite a number since 1972 and I tell it like it is. NB if you work yourself up into a state and you skin is clammy - then they will must likely hurt - any damp skin eg after a shower - will cause the same problem. So - Keep Calm and Carry On !
2. what things are contra-indicated fro Crohn's? I know it's a bowel prob but no idea what the dietary advice for it is. Is it one where you have to eat shedloads of fibre or one where you have to avoid it? What about fruit and veg? Fats? Protein? Carbs? etc.
Just thinking you may be under - or have been given - the erroneous advice that you simply MUST have to eat shedloads of carbs re the diabetes, but in fact you don't.
So if you could give us some info re the first one, we can fill you in on the second!
