Diabetic and chronic pain

I have been dealing with both health issues. I am type 2 diabetic and my pain is something I live with daily and it will always be with me. Any good desert ideas are welcome. My doctor change my pain meds and I seem to be doing some better with pain. Also I am less tired. Thankful for that. I don't control my sugar as well as I should, I am afraid I am childlike with food and have terrible cravings and sometimes just don't feel full. Anyway that's where I am and with the help of GOD I will get things under control.

@LadyBug60 Sorry to hear about your struggles with diabetes and chronic pain.   I'm sure you know, but diabetes doesn't mean you can't have any sweets and you should control your carbs. Have you thought about seeing a nutritionist for help with foods?

But you've done the best thing by quitting smoking.  Nicotine actually increases blood sugar levels.  So be proud of your success.
