What This Site Considers Spam

A DiabetesTeam Member asked a question 💭

OK I find this strange. How come when I want to give advice to people and use several of my own pre written information I put in my computer on my spreadsheet that I created, this site only lets me post them once a day, then let me know I already wrote something similar and it is considered spam.

All I can do is talk about how I manage my type2 diabetes to make me as well as I am. The way or parts of the way I manage my diabetes/diet/lifestyle may or may not work/help other type2 diabetics. My way is made up from advice from Diabetes UK, lots of reading/research on type2 diabetes and how to manage it, my own trial and error methods and 6months after diagnosis I found "MY WAY" its suits me perfectly, parts of it may help other type2 diabetics but my hereditary history means that if my brother was type2 also (he isn't diabetic) parts of my way might help him but all of "MY WAY" won't. Definitely do research, read loads, DON'T RELY ON DRS FOR THE MOST UP-TO-DATE info they have an average view. ABOVE ALL TALK TO OTHER TYPE2 DIABETICS and LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!!!

Your giving of self to others is NOT recognized by the bots....but we fellow diabetics, do.

I totally agree. Several people are trying their best to answer legit questions. Yet I got on here this morning and the same post was there six times in a row, asking for people to sell blood test strips. And then again, in other posts. Not right!

That's crazy I didn't think they can do that all your doing is trying to give advice and help others that are diabetic or just found out their diabetic
