[QUOTE="Jenny15, post: 1796561, member: 196992"] Hi Lindie. I've been dealing with body aches and pains for most of my adult life. I do have some diagnoses and some of them are treatable, but much of what is wrong with me has no treatment beyond symptom relief. I think the doctor is right to look first to diabetes-related changes as that is the biggest thing that has changed recently but at the same time, I think he or your GP should be running some basic blood tests for non-diabetes-related things at the very least to rule them out. I don't know what your access to GPs and specialists is like but maybe your GP can start the investigative process off? I am under the care of 5-6 specialist departments at any one time and boy does it get confusing for them and me. So we all rely on my GP to "hover above" all the info they're working with and highlight when something may need attention. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
