Erin asked:


I have heard that people with diabetes should not take cold, flu or pain medications. Why is this? Also, I have heard that they should avoid exposure to high heat and humidity? Why is this? I also would love to know what it is exactly, and why you need to watch what you eat and use a meter?

I drink A LOT and I have to pee A LOT. I have a family history of diabetes (my sister & great uncle has type one). I get a test done twice a year for diabetes because I am so likely to get it. Do you think I have it. I get the test results in a couple of days.
I drink only water, and I am thirteen, so I don’t think it’s type two.

I know someone that occasionally has problems swallowing when he is eating. It makes him feel like he is about to choke, as the food doesn’t go down. He is a diabetic. Is diabetes a contributing factor if someone is having a hard time swallowing?
