It is another one of those stories that end in type 2 diabetes being most often linked with obesity..... (God it makes me mad)

Anyway it offers great hope especially in perhaps trying to figure out what causes it. Read it here.

I was reminded today of a spooky event. Back in December 2005 I was suffering a severe bout of lower back pain, and having just had yet another pain killer scare (Arcoroc I seem to recall, or it may have been cerebrex), I tried reflexology, you know, the foot manipulation thing. Well, of course, it helped greatly. On the days that I had the reflexology, my pain levels subsided for about 24 hours. The spooky thing is that at this time I had a medical and had normal blood pressure, cholesterol and no diabetes. The reflexologist picked up an indication about my pancreas. I forgot about it until today. 6 months later I was type 2 diabetic. Spooky!
