Diabetic anyone?

Rockinonahigh · 11-01-2011, 10:34 AM

Since ive been takeing the anitbiotics over the last week ive had to eat more than I had been so I would have less probs with the meds,today I take the last two and I am very glad.So far my numbers arent up to much but im use to being around 85 to110 and its been 120 to135 I spoke with the doc he said if im not haveing any other probs I will be ok.The worst thing about the meds is the kick ass dizzy spells I sometimes get...not nice at all.

Welcome

It gets a bit quiet here, but there are quite a few of us around if you need anything, or have a question.

Sorry about the dizzy spells!

Medications can REALLY affect sugar levels...my Mom's levels were spiking around 650 when she had to go on steriods for a while before she passed. It was hard to get them down, even with Insulin!

so far im not on insulin,just keeping my diet on an even keel,the one thing that has bugged me is my burning feet.I have a back prob wich sometimes causes my sciatica to go haywire but this is in both feet,it makes my socks fee like they are made of old heavy cords,most times I take off my shoes or go bare foot wich helps.I also have just started geting my shoes a bit wider than before plus makeing shure I take good care of my feet so there isnt visable injury,ive broken many a bone in my feet over the years,both ankles at the same time.....lllooonnnngggg story on that one..called rodeo.

Speak with your doc. There are meds out there that can help with that burning in your feet aka diabetic neuropathy.

Thanks I will do that,I thought I had to have ot really bad before my feet became an issue...gess not.

No no. You DON'T want to wait until your feet get real bad. Get them checked soon. Diabetic neuropathy is nothing to play with.
