My diabetes team told me a 30 minute walk would regulate me. It works for me, I understand your frustration about having to keep your levels low. I feel awful at 4.8 and can't concentrate and want to sleep. As for he dancing lessons, I would advise you speak to your doctor or diabetes team. I...
There is a book on eBay called , pregnancy and pre existing diabetes. Should help. It's helped me. I'm 7 wks +5. I'm keeping my range between 5-6 but obviously taking more insulin. Going for a walk to helps regulate your glucose. Congratulations and I wish you the best xxx
I hope tomorrow I will be sent for proper tests and get it sorted on e and for all. I've had 12 hours sleep in a period of a week. I'm exhausted and just lost appetite In my food. I've lost weight again about 6lbs in one week. I have these palpitations that come and when that happens I am so...
It's shocking! I was called pathetic by one doctor the other day because he said it was a panic attack. This breathing problem came suddenly for no reason and it's been 11days. This is not a panic attack oh and I forgot to mention they tried to say I'm asthmatic. It's so easy to slap a label on...
I've had paramedics here and they left me on my sofa unable to breathe and called it a 'panic attack'. I am so disgusted at the healthcare system. It's shocking how we are treated. I can't even touch my arms or my legs because their so sore xx
My ketones are 0.02. They were high the other day but I managed to get it down with eye watering amounts of insulin. I can't sleep because of the pain I'm in. I can't take sleeping tablets incase of a hypo :( xx
I went to a different one yesterday and they gave me a chest X-ray because I've recently had pneumonia, my glucose was high (16.5). And my ECG was erratic. They then said I had acid reflux and gave me gaviscon but no answer to my arms and legs. I can't even walk far without feeling the need to...
I've been all over the place with my glucose. I've told the hospital all these symptoms and they dismissed them all. I went back twice in one night because I just couldn't feel my legs or arms atall. Im having nausea and jaw pain too. My hospital is rubbish unfortunately. Xx
I have been having pain and cramps and weak arms and legs for the last few days. Along with trouble breathing (unable to get a breathe sometimes) I've been in hospital but they only found out I've got an abnormal ventricular problem. I'm only 19 and been diabetic 4 months. What is going on? I am...

I have no cough or cold or any fever I feel like someone's stamped on my chest and very fatigued though. I've slept 12 hours already and now heading to bed as I have an emergency...
Thank you. It feels like my chest has been stomped with steel toe cap boots. I can hardly breath sometimes. I'm testing every hour and I've also adjusted my lantus and I have no appetite so I'm trying out compeed. That's meant to help. Xxx
Hey everyone.
My ended up in A+E last night unable to breathe and found out I've got pneumonia. Without a cough a cold or even a sneeze! My glucose has been an absolute nightmare to control. I've been dropping really quick then shooting up and then dropping to 0.9!!! I feel very very sick and...
I've started getting intense headaches. My glucose is in the high teens. I've given myself a correction dose (2 units). Hopefully it will come down. Feel so rotten xxx
