This is the part of my blog where I tell you that I am not a medical doctor (or medical expert of any kind), and therefore am not equipped to give you medical advice of any sort. My blog is an outlet for me to share my life with diabetes and all of the challenges and triumphs that come along with it. What works for me may not work for you, and in fact may be just the opposite of what would be right for your body; therefore, YMMV (your mileage may vary) if you decide to try anything that I've done in order to manage my blood sugars effectively. I try to provide the best information possible and cite my sources whenever I can, so while I would never intentionally mislead you, I am only human. If you ever find anything that is blatantly incorrect, I would love for you to let me know! Diabetes is a highly individualized disease and there isn't one cure-all that will work for everyone. As with anything medical-related, it is always advisable to follow your doctor's advice above anything you may read on the 'net, including this blog. I am also not a representative for any specific brands or products; I only tell you about the things I use to help manage my diabetes and how they work for me...which is not to say that they will/won't work for you! Therfore, my blog does not contain endorsements of any kind; just reviews/comments on how a particular piece of diabetes apparatus works in my D-life.
