Flu season is here again.
Don't forget to get your flu shot. M.D. Forty years ago, at a tender age, I decided to write a book about diabetes. My precociousness derived from the fact that I was in the midst of a three-year stint working in elegant biochemistry laboratories, studying the intricacies of carbohydrate and fat metabolism, and I was also busy seeing patients in the diabetes clinic of the University of California San Francisco Hospital. A few memories of my first book writing effort still remain. I remember the central point I was trying to make, and that was that the person with diabetes who does the best in life would be the person who knows the most about his or her disease.
