Anyone else found that they are troubled by frequent nose bleeds? I was diagnosed type 2 early this year and have had at least 4 quite heavy nose bleeds since. Not something I remember getting since childhood.
 
Are you on any blood thinning agents, like Warfarin or Aspirin?
 
My father in law (who is not diabetic) started having nosebleeds regularly. Turned out it was a blood pressure thing. The bp meds stopped the bleeds.

But there are a lot of other possible reasons, so please don't assume you have high bp.
Might be worth checking out with doctor, though.
 
I don't take Warfarin or Asprin, but have had high blood pressure for the last couple of years. Might be connected, but odd that it hasn't happened before.
