I've been a Type I diabetic for about 15 years so I know what you are going through. If your urine is dark, cloudy or foamy then you need to get into your physician quickly.

If you are just having occasional pain, then I recommend the cranberry pill flush that is mentioned. I was able to get some relief from the pains within about three days.

Good luck and please follow up with me to let me know how things are going. I've been on several roller coaster rides myself with weight swings of nearly 70 pounds and am using an insulin pump, so I've learned much over the years.

I would also check the American Diabetes Association website at www.diabetes.org .
