Hi for the past 4 weeks I can't get my BG below 13.
Since feb 2011. I take 2 Gluchophage tablets and 1 atarvostatin.
I have constant lower leg pain, and over the last 4 weeks very sore feet and toes, no signs of infections/cuts anything like that,
I am a lot more tired than normal,
I do not want to go to the doctors or my Diabetic nurse as the last time I went, The nurse said I was to stop self testing as that was her job at the ANNUAL Review??
My doctor told me to stop taking the tablets and never offered me an alternative. his comment on being tired was "everyone gets tired!" I ended up in the hospital in february, as blood sugar/ Cholestral/ blood pressure was all over the place. It was a doctor at the Hospital who changed my medication. Is it a fact that you only need your blood tested annually or should it be done more frequently, and how often should I be getting my blood pressure tested.
thanks :wave:
