After managing to escape the side effects of diabetes for over 45 years I started getting cramps if I walked any distance or climbed a flight of stairs. Anyway after going around the houses for over a year I was referred to a vascular surgeon who diagnosed me with PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease). The ultrasound scan has shown problems in both legs and I am now booked for a CT scan before they decide on any treatment.. I have been advised not to take my insulin that morning and to take nothing by mouth as they inject a “contrast dye” which may cause nausea. Has anybody experience of this?
