I’m always with him , but he needs to have them done on the same day he rings up . Unfortunately you have to book appointments and there’s no knowing if it’s going to be a relapse day or not . Hcp don’t understand this . They just think no matter what he can drag himself in even if he’s unconscious. It’s like saying tomorrow I’m going to have a hypo , you just don’t know . He now needs me to be with him all the time as he can hardly walk now . His health over the last two years has gone down hill. He can’t even go to the shops on his own as lifting anything puts him in pain . There’s still a lot of negative feeling to those with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.
I felt that negativity. Just asking a few old trained nurses. They don't acknowledge its huge impact.
Ron with the type of diabetes that's apparently self caused (in the blinkered) and his new modern health problems. He will be very misunderstood.
Fibromyalgia is getting more good press though in forums, and CFS.
It will be a slow process.
Myself I fully understand type2 and how it can develop but normally its always underlined in our genes so lifestyle (drugs or lack of healthy cells) can make symptoms dangerous.
You both have my support.
I know I've been preoccupied recently but hopefully not for much longer.
My op won't cure my type2 but it will significantly reduce my insulin need to control my bgs. Longterm.
Luckily Ron isn't on insulin. He would be in a deeper hell. His current conditions wouldn't appreciate the weight gain.
I'm hoping to be nearer the 15st mark in a year's time. Still heavy for many but light for me.
