Chris Gotti says his brother Irv denied diabetes diagnosis and refused to change anything. Had a stroke while eating Chinese food.

"Undiagnosed" diabetes into his late 40s is nuts, I get bloodwork done every year and have been doing so since my early 20s. How you got that much money and not getting annual physicals/checkups?

All it takes. They'd see that A1C and get you the help you need. Nobody should be dying of treatable conditions like that.

Type 1 on an insulin pump.

Personally, I have to be mindful of the foods I eat after my late diagnosis at the age of 23, and I reach for healthier foods like lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, leafy greens, whole fruits, brown rice, and whole wheat bread are a lot of it. Staying hydrated is a must. I’ll have one day out of the week where I’ll treat myself. I had to cut back on cookies and my favorite dessert, devil’s food cake after I found out about my life predicament. It’s human to love sugar! Thankfully, I can still enjoy them in small moderations.

That’s good. I’m glad you’re doing well. How old are you now?

Folks gonna learn to pay attention and get a yearly physical. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes December of 2023 nikka I hit the ground running. Lost 115 pounds, overhauled my entire life. Walk about 5 times a week, low to no carbohydrate diet. Cut out seed oils, fried foods, sugar, ultra processed food, etc. my A1C was 7.2 t diagnosis, now at 5.1. save your physical life man. I been telling you dudes to get that cardiovascular checkup. CT scan for your arteries that will reveal plaque buildup that leads up to heart attack, stroke, atherosclerotic disease, etc. insulin resistance read upon it. For a nikka to get 100 million dollars and completely stop giving a rats behind about his health is insane. First thing dude should have done is get a physical with complete blood work and get some meds until his diet and exercise regimen is on point. I was on meds for about 6 months now I'm off everything just maintain with diet and exercise.

What meds did they put you on for diabetes?

 

[FaTaL]

Damn. Type 1!!!!

That’s brazy. So he was eating and drinking and not even taking insulin???? WTF

can u get type 1 as a adult? i thought u were born with it

 

[Maximus Rex]

I was told to take that, but I bushed it

It's your body, do what you want to do.

can u get type 1 as a adult? i thought u were born with it

Type 1 is genetic and develops as you are a child, teenager, young adult

Type 2 develops when you never had it but because you consumed so many carbs (sugars) your body develops insulin resistance and doesn't react the same why when they are the in the system.

can u get type 1 as a adult? i thought u were born with it

It can happen at any age

 

[FTBS]

Yeah fukk that lol

Matter of fact, fukk all of that. Every single bit of it lol

Unchecked diabetes can lead to going blind, amputation, constant fatigue, and brain fog among other things. I can't think of a single person that would knowingly agree to those terms as a way to go.

RIP to him but I'm not about to give him props for that especially when he's leaving behind family.

Real shyt. We all gotta go. But to die young and rich of something preventable when you got a family is horrible. There is no other way to put it. Your grandkids will never know you because you wanted to live like Garfield. Nothing cute or honorable about that shyt.

Good shyt. How old were you when diagnosed?

 

[Tribal Outkast]

He had the money and the resources to take care of himself but chose not to. Dame Dash is also a diabetic, and chooses not to take care of himself, and now his false teeth are falling out during livestreams. I'm a diabetic - I watch what I eat, practice good hygiene, and monitor my blood sugar levels every day, so I don't end up like Irv or Dame.

Cutting out certain bullshyt foods abc drinking more water definitely helps. I get sad watching people eat loads of soul food with extra salt while drinking soda or highly sugary foods behind it. Irv and Dame probably eat like shyt and use alcohol and stuff. Cutting back makes a major difference

Good shyt. How old were you when diagnosed?

44

What meds did they put you on for diabetes?

I was on metformin and atvorstatin to prevent heart attack and stroke. Once I read that on the bottle I said hell nah this not gonna be my life

What type of foods do you eat now?

Ever have cheat days or nah?

 

[Mac Ten]

Irv should have been in the gym with Ja….


No excuses.


It’s sad now because we can’t get anymore episodes of Tales which was a good show.

It was the Hip Hop version of the Outer Limits to me.
