We are working on bringing down my insulin amounts! Now I am beginning to have a more stabilized level with the Alpha Lipoic Acid. Already noticeable differences. I have been to a specialist on foods, twice. And both times they tell me what I am eating is right in line with what she recommended. Back then I could literally look at food and somehow gain weight, lol. Anyways, this ALA has changed the entire ball game and medicines are coming down. I take more herbals and growing more at home as well! I cannot take certain insulins, the only one I could take that seemed to help for years because I do not make my own, was the extended release. My mom took the regular insulin for many years. But that did not work well with me. more below...

Now with the lowering of many things, including the major pain I was having, now I can start reducing to come off things! I would rather be on herbal supplements than pharma any day!!! And then once the herbal supplements are no longer needed, to come off those as well!

But another stupid thing my medical does, in order to receive care for my eyes, I am required to be on their medicines, UNLESS, I can find the right things on my own to help and then eventually come down off medicines (they still fight me on). The surgeon who re-attached both retnas, said that he would not do any more surgeries or help and made it that I had to be on the pharma medicines.
