I wonder if they think this is what type2 does?Not really . Ron was in such pain and felt tired . Before we even left home getting him ready was a battle against swollen legs and feet. We use soft top socks and even they were tight . His family could see he wasn't right so after a few hours we left for home. His sister was so touched that he came. His mum couldn't believe it . Maybe we'll try another time when he's had more therapy.
He really has a raw deal. Have they gave him a clear diagnosis now? Did you say Chronic Pain Disorder with arthritis and of course our joint type2 diabetes?
His swellings sound painful... in this weather.
Ive learnt to live with my numb toe/s, leg and swollen tummy now. I'm just thankful my scatica and pelvic/spinal pain is elevated by dihydrocodeine and paracetamol. Enough for a day out to a funfare but aided by a few taxis and a bus and Mr ickihun and boys.
It was a lovely, very hot, but rewarding day. I'm thankful I don't swell up too much in the heat. My tummy swells more after exercise.
Like now.
I really feel for @eldergarth and @tina_marie. In this heat.
I have to lose a further 2.5kgs before my 5wk time endoscopy. I have to return to diabetes unit for support with wayward metformin and its failure to help with weight loss.... again.
Surgeon wants a full 3-4kg loss before my op.
I must be a saint. Kids eating funfair treats and I'm luckily happy with diet drinks.... it was swealtering!.!!!!
I really want to wow my surgeon from my low carb, low fat weight loss.
Obviously make the op as easy as possible.
