re: diabetes Mx

hey I am a physio student and just wonder what advice will a physio give to a patient who has NIDDM with mild asthma and SOB on exertion if we want to prescribe an exercise prg for him/her? Also what is the current protocol of an exercise prescription for a NIDDM?(like intensity,freq,etc)? What kind of endurance ex is good for NIDDM pt? thx for you all help!

The ACSP -American College of Sports MEdicine - Guidlines have a section on IDDM and NIDDM etc. This is a great publication that is continually updated and should be a reference all physiotherapists should have. Indeed it is a text at Sydney University (or at least it was when I was there)
