I am 39 years old. 40 Next month. Been Type 2 for 6 years. After Months of complaining that I felt odd in legs. I finally got a leg Doppler to my surprise and also Fright as well. I have a Blocked Artery in Left Leg. I now have to wait until 6th May to find out from Diabetic Nurse where we go from here.
I have lots of other health problems as well.
I am on Low Carb diet. And I stick to it without question. Even got through several Christmas without touching any bad stuff. And been proud of Myself and Now I am scared. I am getting leg Cramps throughout the Day and Night and I am drinking Tonic water at night allowing to help. But every night I wake up in total agony with leg cramps. Due to back Curvature I sleep with Legs Up On Pillow And not had this Problem since I was Diagnosed but 6 months ago it started. I am on so many different pills to help with other health Problems.
I am also getting chest Pains and a bad head I am on warfarin for Blood clots life long. Also Morphine for Migraines and Back ache. 150mg nightly of amitriptyline. Also 3 different inhalers for Asthma. I keep feeling Like my Nose is blocked as well. . I can't get emergency appointment at Docs due to them not having any appointments. Last time I went to A&E I was tested for all sorts and it got to the point that what I went in for never got sorted out. I have Blood test on Wednesday Next week at Hospital. I am starting to feel scared as I feel like all is going wrong. My Mum was Diagnosed at age 38 with Angina. And I seem to be following mum with Health Problems as well.
