[QUOTE="Nidge247, post: 1519571, member: 158871"] This was one of the issues which took me to the docs in the first place just prior to diagnosis. It was when manoeuvring a large vehicle with even larger trailer using a balanced clutch that my leg muscles cramped up to the point of extreme pain and unable to walk - all pretty alarming at the time. My hba1c at diagnosis was 101; the highest my GP had seen and at a dangerous level for me. Thankfully, there has been no recurrence of this since my BGs are now tightly controlled through use of low carbing. (I did need insulin immediately on diagnosis to bring my sugars down to a survivable level, though not currently needing any these last 20 months or so.) [/QUOTE]
