I am a diabetic and on pills but have an appointment with an
endocrinologist at the end of the month because I will probably have to
go on insulin due to the prednisone I am on for something else. The
blood sugars just won’t go down while I am on it. I seem to be
drinking a lot of tomato juice lately and want to know if I should be
doing that. I buy the type with half of the sodium but I drink about a
can a day. Looking forward to your respones. Thanks for your help.
Joanne.
