Sorry, I keep posting on here at the moment - we are four weeks into my husbands diagnosis so I have so many questions all of the time.
The last few times we've been to the football my husbands hands have been freezing. I know this sounds trivial as it has been cold but he's never normally one to get cold or feel the cold? I'm concerned this is something to do with his nerves and circulation?! Am I being paranoid? He says the feeling in his hands is fine they are just cold?
Also with his readings - so today he woke up and was at 5.9 then at lunch he went to 7.0 and then he had two beers and he's gone up to 10 - how dangerous is it for him to be at 10? I feel four weeks in he's doing really well with his levels but I don't know! The DSN has adviced he doesn't carb count yet but we are doing it in stages! Does any one just have any reassuring advice? Thank you
