[QUOTE="Jenny15, post: 1800001, member: 196992"] Hi, my diagnosis story was similar to yours and I too have multiple health and disability diagnoses. I'm not overly optimistic your nurse will do an A+ job but hope he or she surprises me. I have read the UK NICE guidelines on chronic fatigue syndrome and they literally tell doctors NOT to tell a person to exercise as it makes it worse. This may also be the case for your condition(s). When a well meaning random person online tells me to exercise more, I just ignore it because they probably do not understand my medical needs or what is now best practice. We exercise as much as we know our body can handle. I suggest taking Vit D supplements (I get them on prescription) as disabled people are more likely to spend time indoors and not get enough sun. Vit D deficiency causes a number of problems we can do without. I will tag in [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] who has some excellent info for newly diagnosed people. It should be relatively simple to get your BGs back down to a safer level, even given your other health issues. Feel free to ask any question, there are no stupid ones. [/QUOTE]
