Welcome to Living with Type 2, a website dedicates to those who deal with this chronic disease everyday.

This site is the outgrowth of a personal blog that described one persons life after becoming a type 2 diabetic.  After living with the disease and learning  from medical professionals, other suffers, and reading many books and articles it was decided that the information was to vast  to be continued as a blog. 

We have now started the process of upgrading the site to make it easier to access articles, studies, news and even personal stories. We hope to continue to inform and connect other diabetics throughout this process.

The improved site will not only include stories of our personal experiences but those of our readers and members as well.  If you would like to include your story email it to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , you can even include a photo if you would like it posted with the story.

Thank you, be well and keep track of your sugars,
Living with Type 2

Cardiovascular Disease Decreasing Among Adults with Diabetes

Two CDC studies say adults with diabetes report they are doing better at the vital job of monitoring their blood sugar, and fewer say they’ve developed cardiovascular disease.

Among people aged 35 years and older with diagnosed diabetes, the prevalence of cardiovascular disease decreased by over 11 percent over an eight year period, according to, " Trends in Prevalence of Self–Reported Cardiovascular Disease Among Adults with Diabetes Aged 35 Years and Older, United States, 1997 – 2005," published in CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR). The report’s authors note the decrease may be due in part to declining rates of cardiovascular disease risk factors such as smoking, high cholesterol and high blood pressure, and to increased use of preventive treatments such as daily aspirin.
