Hi there Everyone
I have recently been diagnosed Diabetic Type 2. I only went to the Docs to report that I felt tired and perhaps needed some iron and before you know I am here !
Had the retina thing done - all ok there but my eye sight test was not too good, deteriorating eye sight and signs of cataracts in the future
I am dreading the trip to the Podiatrist as for years now I have had reddish/pink toes and the same around the perimeters of my feet and at about the same time as that started my scalp started to itch incredibly to the point where I scratch, it bleeds, it scabs and I pick the scabs which bleed and become infected. The Doc has given me every potion known to man and nothing helps - I end up on antibiotics and then the cycle starts again.
Could these 2 problems be related to my having Diabetes ?
Thanks so much.
Jackie
