Diabetes Type IIr Resource and Discussion Page "http://home.ptd.net/~hwagner/2r.htm" "Over the past two years, the number and quality of Diabetes related pages on the Web has exploded. When you combine this with the presence of mailing lists and newsgroups (such as MISC.HEALTH.DIABETES) there would seem to be no real need for yet another Diabetes page. This page is not an attempt to replace, supplant or compete with those resources already in operation on the Web. for diabetics. Rather, it is a response to the reality that most of these resources are heavily slanted to the problems,needs and issues of the Type I insulin dependent diabetic. Those of us who are blessed with Type IIr diabetes, and its related issues, such as Syndrome X are less well represented, if at all. This page is an attempt to provide such a resource for the Type IIr individual."
