I am an OAP Type 2, on metformin and insulin. Recently, I feel as vague as I did in the days when I had PMT and found it hard to concentrate on difficult tasks. Not all the time, just sometimes. Why should this be?

My chemist wont sell me medicine to treat fungus toes due to my diabetes. Is there a cream/medicine that is safe to take?

Very interested in the comparisons to a hangover. I often feel like I have severe PMT (impossible at my age, 69). Any tips for that?

Last night, I went to sleep about 1am feeling fine after a lovely day. Woke at 6.30 with nausea, headache and feeling poorly. This happens a lot to me. My blood reading was 6.1. Could I have had a hypo during the night? What happens in those night time hours to change how I feel?

Occasionally when I inject my insulin, a large blob of blood appears when I withdraw the needle. Will the insulin I have injected come back out in this slight loss of blood?

I had a bad hypo ( no warning) the other night, 2.9, and was so ravenous I could have eaten my hand. I took 3 Lucozade tablets at once and made myself a snack. My husband says I should have waited 10 mins after eating the Lucozade before eating the snack, but I couldnt. Does it really matter?

I am in Scotland and attend Western general every 6 months for my care.They organise my eye exams and diets but am wondering what I can expect re someone caring for my feet. I go to a chiropodist and get nails trimmed etc but would like someone to look at the bone that appears to have grown...

thanks Tracey. I take medication for my under active thyroid and it is carefully monitored. My readings fluctuate erratically. This odd feeling is recent. I may get some B6s, I used to swear by them 20 years ago!

I am an OAP and should not have PMT but recently thats how I have felt. I started a new insulin - could it be that? I was on Novamix but am now on Novarapid and Humulin.

I recently changed my insulin to novorapid during the day and humulin for during the night. I used to be on novamix. Recently since changing I feel as if I have PMT which is daft as I am an OAP. Could it be the new insulin?
