I am a very busy, outgoing person who spends a lot of time with friends. I have had type 2 Diabetes for several years and because of satisfactory annual blood and foot checks l had been lulled into a false sense of security. I have recently discovered that the alarming symptoms which had been attributed to a spinal problem are in fact the result of out of control Diabetes and advanced neuropathy in my legs and the beginning of symptoms in my arms, hands and throat !!! l now have a testing kit and am testing several times daily. results fluctuating between 3.2 and 11.8 as I try to sort out my diet.
