<div id="X810" style="display: none;">I haven&#8217;t been diagnosed with diabetes, but I am overweight and my doctor prescribed metformin because my insulin levels are high.  Can I drink alcohol &#8212; the hard stuff without carbs like vodka, say &#8211;while on a low dose of metformin? And if so, how much is too much?</div>

<div id="X4423" style="display: none;">I have read so many things about carbs! I am 32 &#8211; female &#8211; overweight and I suffer from insulin resistance. How am I supposed to eat? My Dr. took me off potatoes, rice, bread and pasta. Even the good carbs cause bloating, medicine head and general feelings of yucky-ness. But aren&#8217;t you supposed to eat carbs?</div>

<div id="X3242" style="display: none; "<br />
It is very expensive to check my blood sugar level 7 to 8 times a<br />
day. To keep my blood sugar  above 100 I eat 5 to 6 times per day<br />
plus a bedtime snack. This is working so far, if I exercise the sugar level<br />
drops more so I eat some bread or brown rice. Is this ok.<br />
I am 64 years old man with a type  2 Diabetes for the last 14 years.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I’m a 28-year-old overweight female (5&#8242;6&#8243;, 189 pounds).  My recent type 2 diabetes diagnosis has brought on depression.  I’m trying to change my diet, but it means that I stay home and eat alone instead of going out with my friends.  I find it too hard to resist the burgers and fries when they are right in front of me.  I feel lonely and frustrated.  Could an antidepressant help me?  Is it safe to mix diabetes medication and antidepressants?  Could an antidepressant make my diabetes worse?</p>
