I can't discern this, but think she may be saying buformin.  However, it sounds more like 'the formin' or maybe 'his formin', which my spellchecker seems to be okay with, but I am unable to document through other sources.  Is formin by itself a medication? 


TIA for any help!

sorry Kathie - I beg to differ - I have diabetes...sm
Subject: sorry Kathie - I beg to differ - I have diabetes...sm

I have been a type 2 diabetic first in pregnancy, then it went away for 8 years and then came back, lost 60 pounds, still have diabetes and have NEVER had HBP (high blood pressure), never been on any antihypertensive drugs ever and went to the MD last Thursday and my BP was 134/70.  I attribute the 134 to WCH (white-coat hypertension).  *LOL* 


So no, not every diabetic has high blood pressure - that's way too general a statement and I have been MT'g for 28 years and worked in a hospital for 10 years in many other capacities prior to MT'g.


Have a GREAT weekend!!!
