DEAR USER

THANKS FOR WRITING TO HCM

I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN..

BUT THE MAIN TREATMENT IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 1 DM IS INSULIN WITHOUT WHICH YOUR BF TREATMENT OF DM IS INCOMPLETE

APART FROM THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT FAILING KIDNEY.. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF HE HAS ANY SWELLING IN BODY, HIS CREAT LEVELS.. ETC

REGARDING THE AFFORDABILITY THERE ARE DIFFERENT SCHEMES FOR PATIENTS NOT AFFORDING COSTLY TREATMENT THAT THE GOVERNMENTS IN VARIOUS COUNTRIES ARE PROVIDING

YOU CAN TRY TO FIND ONE

HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY

YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
