[quote:danjan:MV8zMjcyNTk0XzU4NTA2MTU0X0ExRjMxQjlD] been a non insulin dependent diabetic for 10 years. I control it by diet, 1500 calories a day. When your blood sugar gets low bad things happen. Your brain shuts down, have trouble thinking an talking, making words and putting them into sentences, you are lucky to get one word out. You lose the ability to control your body temperature. You get cold and start shaking. The shaking turns to seizures and then into a coma. You can be revived by taking sugar at anytime up to the coma stage. [/quote]

I sweat profusely - I get dizzy and almost feel like I will pass out. My entire body wants to shake. I can't sign my own name until after 12 pm. I am 61 yrs old, my father died of diabetes at the age of 60.
Now here is the kicker. I drink vodka every day - never to get drunk - but, I do every day to calm the symptoms above. These are not hangovers they are nothing I've ever felt before. And the god damn itchys !
