Diabetes can go into remission yes. Once you have it though, I've learned, you always have it. Some go for many years with good numbers in remission. I have type 2 which more people have. I am on low doses of psyche med now. I was off it when I was diagnosed with diabetes so don't think that caused it. I am a lot overweight and that is a part of what caused it plus I was eating pastries and candy and that is when it turned pre diabetic then diabetic. I saw a Diabetes Educator and got a good book on it and testing supplies and she taught me a lot. I am pretty much aware of what to eat and how much but following it perfectly I haven't done yet. I am getting better at it. Thank you so much for your concern--it means a lot.

I hope everything starts turning around for you.
