    neuropathy?

    Interesting...thanks for you input. They think my neuropathy is not from diabetes, since my numbers are only as high as 300, but ususally have more problems being low (35-45).

    Extremely Unhappy with CFRD Care

    Shea - Thanks so much for your prospective. I've spent the last month trying to talk to as many people as I can, and I think I finally feel like I know enough about the disease and possible treatments to know that I need to talk to a different doctor. I was exercising quite regularly for...

    Extremely Unhappy with CFRD Care
