How Can I Go About Getting My Uncle Committed In NJ?

My Uncle is in his mid-fifties and he has diabiates. He often eats many things that go against what his doctors tell him to eat including many high-sugar items. He has had multipule incidents in the past where he has not taken his medication and has diabetes induced conditions where he basically had no awareness of himself or his surrounding. They also have caused him to lose control of his bodily functions.

In general, getting someone "committed" means they are held in a psychiatric facility for 24-48 hours while they are assessed. This is done when the person is feared a danger to them self or others. Basically you cannot commit your uncle because your family can't take care of him anymore. However, there are many facilities which are specifically made for people who need assistance with taking care of them self. You can work with your uncle's doctor to find a facility best suited to his needs.

Can someone tell me where to find a list of good food & a list of bad food for a diabetic?

My best friend has been diagnosed with diabetes, which she controls with oral medication. She has been advised to see a dietician or nutritionist to help her with her diet, but she is the primary care giver for her husband who has terminal cancer. She will not leave him long enough to care for herself. Does anyone know where I might find a diet or a list of foods that are good for her & bad for her to eat? I am just trying to help her bridge that gap until she is able to leave his side & take care of herself. Thank you in advance for any advice you might have.

How to go about losing weight as a 17 year old girl?

I currently am 5'5" and weigh 168 pounds, making my BMI a 28 (overweight).

(Miku!)
as a heads up, I thank you for wanting a realistic weight.
Not a twig-weight. :]

I don't know blood-pressure, so I can't answer that for you.

However, in order to lose weight, I'd advise to eat about 1500 calories everyday (don't eat any form of "white" food, like white bread.) and exercise for 45 minutes every day. Preferably cardio.
However, if you're not used to exercise like that, I'd really advise you to start your routine slow. If you end up doing 45 minutes and you're sore for days, really, you're not going to keep doing it. Trust me.

So, if you're out of shape, do 20 minutes for a few days, then up it to 30 minutes, and so on. It'll be much easier to get into the routine if you don't kill yourself doing it.

obtaining bendroflumethiazide in the Philippines?

i`m planning to go to the Philippines shortly..for 6months..and need to obtain blood pressure tablets when i`m there..the one i will need is.Bendroflumethiazide..has anyone got information on how i can obtain this there..and if it is under another name..

The tablet you mention is only available here on prescription so if you take them you must have got them from your doctor. Surely they will supply you with enough for your visit if they are required for health reasons.

What jobs can you have that relate to diabetes and what is the major to get them?

I am looking at college majors and something I am considering in the future is helping diabetics. I am a Type 1 diabetic and have celiac disease so I am familiar with a lot of things related to diabetes in the first place.

I second the nutrionist idea. Also what about public health where you could work on diabetes and other health issues. Contact a local support group for diabetes and ask if you can come talk to people and see how they got there.

Where can i buy a diabetes tester that won't need the strip to test?

My dad want it for his birthday and I never find it in cvs

The meter needs a way to use the blood sample. That's the function of a test strip. So, I am pretty sure they all require test strips.

I know the ACCU-CHEK Compact has a drum loader so that your father wouldn't have to handle the test strips. He'd just put the drum in and the meter would spit the test strip out when he wants to test. That's about as good as you're going to get.

My gf has childhood diabetes how do i take care of her?

As you probably know I won her over finally lol look at my other questions if u wanna know. Anyway she has childhood diabetes so i need to know how to take care of her.

I think that's so sweet that you asked that. Since I have type 1 diabetes and I've dated some guys, I know it's hard to find someone that cares about a disease. Anyway, she can eat whatever she wants, as well as drink. She should check her blood sugar a minimum of four times a day. Is she on shots or a pump?
If she ever isn't acting right or is shaky, pale, or sweaty, have her check her blood sugar. Carry around glucose tablets where ever you go. You can buy them in just about any store. In fact, it wouldn't hurt for you to carry around a second meter.
Also, you can take a class at Children's hospital or your local hospital on diabetes and how to care for a diabetic. And you can always ask her.

I hope I helped!

Why Does Insurance Handle Mental Health Different From Other Health Conditions?

For years most insurance coverages have treated mental heath care different than other types of heath care.
The copays are usually 80/20 for a person who deals with an ailment like diabetes.
The copay for someone who has clinical depression is usually 50/50.
I would believe the 1994 American with Disabilities Act would prohibit this.
Obviously not and it seems this is standard practice in the insurance industry.
Since each are medical conditions with a mortality risk, how can they (insurance) do this?

It's actually in the process of being changed on the Federal level.

However, since most individuals in the US have their insurance through their employer, if the employer writes the policy themselves, and pays all the medical expenses out of their own check book, they get to make the rules. But even they must follow the Federal Guidelines.

Which is why you have limitations not only on Mental Health, but even Chiropractic/Physical Therapy. Even Preventative Care!

Why do I know this? I work in the healthcare insurance industry.
