Hi Guys!
Ive been diagnosed since early July 2014 was prescribed 1 metformin (which is since been increased to 2 yesterday)...
Cant deny it was a shock because it was, prior to finding out I also suffer with anxiety, panic & depression besides epilepsy (which is controlled with tabs), I cant take meds for the depression bcus of it weakening my epilepsy drugs.
Anyway this last week or so ive felt really down to the point ive felt ill, but its quite intense to what ive experienced before, my mind starts to wander & I start to think there is other things wrong with me than just the diabetes, epilepsy & depression etc...I've been quite tearful on occasions but try not to show this in front of my 12 year old son as I dont want him to worry about me.
I had an appointment with my diabetes nurse yesterday & found out I was doing really well i'd shed another 8lb since my last appointment & she was full of praise for me but I dont feel happy about it, I dread each day as I never know how im going to feel, I dread each night as I never know how im going to sleep, its my birthday on Friday & tbh if I feel like this I wont feel like going out for the meal that my son has arranged for me :-(
Any help & advice would be much appreciated :-(
