Hi, I am type 2 & on insulin, I have been having medical problems for a couple of years. I have "altered awareness", and sometimes black out, after various tests I have now been told its nerve damage due to the diabetes and that although it will not get better if my diabetes gets under control it won't get any worse. Does anyone else suffer with this?
 
I have nerve damage similarily to yourself, I'm a T1 but for many years so whether good control or not (I have very good control) in my case the damage is done. My damage affects the regulation of my heart (very fast rate, blood pressure raising and dropping quickly leading me to feel like I was going to pass out, etc), I'm now on beta blockers but feeling so much better. I hope you find a solution that helps.
