Welcome to the Diabetes Support Forum. This is the new home for the Diabetes forum. We hope that you will find it to be a useful place to visit to discuss Diabetes, Hypoglycemia and other related health matters. The forum is intended to be a place for all of us to share experiences, to learn from each other and to be part of a friendly community. The forum is divided into sections, each being devoted to separate topics but it is understood that there will be overlaps between topics. Please post a message here to let us know that you have arrived; our staff team will be only too pleased to answer your questions. We have a large library of files which you can access by clicking on "Files"on the Navigation Bar. There is a very helpful file, "How To Use The Forum" (usingforum.htm) that you can view or download from the library. Please remember that every one of us is a volunteer here and we are here because we want to be with others who have an interest in helping cope with diabetes. A friendly discussion forum is what we are seeking so no flames, no name-calling, no offensive behaviour, no blatant advertising and please no posting of links to sites that are not family oriented. At any time and without notice your participation in here might be curtailed or stopped completely if you do not abide by the rules. Please enjoy yourself and don't spoil it for others. You are welcome to join in any discussions already on the board by clicking REPLY. If you want to start a new discussion, click on NEW, choose the most suitable folder, and post your message. For Compuserve rules please click on the links at the bottom of every forum page. John Cutmore Forum Manager.
