Tomorrow is World Diabetes Day

What can you do to support those with diabetes and get the word out?:
1. Go blue. This suggestion may be a bit extreme, but you can wear blue tomorrow (as little or as much as you want) to support those with diabetes.

Allergic rhinitis and asthma: Does allergic rhinitis increase the risk of asthma?
While reading this article by Medical News Today today I came across an interesting statement and one that holds very true for my son: "'Allergic rhinitis has been shown to increase the risk of asthma three-fold, and investigators found that when rhinitis began in the first year of life, the development of asthma by age 6 was twice as high as when it started after the first year,' Dr. Pawankar said".

Allergies, Asthma and the upcoming holiday season
The holidays are coming! There are many tell-tale signs: Commercials are on TV showing families sitting around the table enjoying holiday festivities, Christmas music is playing over the speakers in stores to inspire shoppers, holiday decorations and displays are set up in stores, and recipes are spread out all over my kitchen counters. My counters are a disaster and will probably stay that way until the first of the year. I am trying to put together safe, allergen friendly menus for Thanksgivin… Continue

Suffering from difficult to control asthma? Are you taking your medication as prescribed?
This article from Yahoo News talks about a study done at Queen's University of Belfast, Northern Ireland that shows that some people with stubborn asthma aren't using their medication as prescribed by their doctors. I don't think this study is earth shattering, but I think that it sheds a light on an important issue. Your doctor prescribes your medication for a reason and it can't help you if you don't tak… Continue

Juvenile Diabetes: How did you handle Halloween?
Our Halloween with food allergies was not the best. In fact, my son ended up in the ER. We tried to be as careful as we possibly could be. But there are no guarantees.

dk said… - Thanks for the comment! I'm sorry to say I haven't been keeping up with Wego as much as I would like; HealthCare PSI seems to be gaining momentum and taking on a life of its own and I'm running as fast as I can just to keep up!
The survey was interesting, wasn't it. Confirmed my suspicions about confusing media coverage. I don't know if the message is muddy on purpose, or just from a lack of planning, but it certainly has been confusing!
Have a grand week -
