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

I am sorry , I didn't mean to interrupt this thread .It appears dead and the same time is so important . I am guessing my friend was right , which I honestly didn't see it . It's ok , on my part was honest suggestion for people with DM type ll . If I can help in any kind of way , please PM me . I sound as a moron . However , I do have knowledge and many resources .
I hope everyone is well and under control of this silent killer . hugs to all Vlasta |

Thanks for coming in to educate us...of course most of us go to classes, and have Doctor's advising us, and would happily use something other than Insulin. No I am not a Nurse, but I have been a diagnosed Diabetic for 32 years and I have gathered a bit of information along the way.
You learn something new every day I guess. |

Hi everyone
I've never heard of Victosa, but googled it and read what I could find. I guess I'm just leery of anything remotely "new" at this point. I just (last week) got off of Actos...which everyone assured me was a wonderful, effective, virtually side effect free medication when they put me on it years ago. Fast forward, and now it's being banned in some markets, severely limited in others, and the FDA is issuing warnings that no one should be on it for more than a year or risk increased rates of bladder cancer. I'm not sure exactly...but I'm pretty sure I've been on it for 7 or 8 years. I guess I'm feeling like I have zero interest in being a guinea pig for the pharmaceutical industry...and like I just was. I'm sticking to metformin and glimiperide...getting my diabetes meds down from 3 to 2 by changing my diet. Next up, I'd really like to get down to metformin alone...but know that I'll need to (at least) lose more weight to accomplish that, and continue my dietary changes. It's a process, and it's different for all of us. The best advice I can give anyone is that we're all different, and different things will work for each of us. We can all benefit from improving our lifestyles....eating better, getting enough sleep, limiting stress, getting more exercise...and working closely with a doctor who listens to you.
