Morning
Over the years I've had various aches and pains, sore wrists which come and go, a knee that clicks, my left hand that I couldn't make a fist and now can, but now with clicky bones...
Over the last week my right hand has been sore and stiff when I wake up, it doesn't go away, but I can eventually move it, with pain. From yesterday it is now really swollen.
As I've got my BG under control now, for the obvious reasons and also so I know what i'm like with near normal ish BGs and can therefore hopefully identify anything that's not diabetes related, as I've tended to assume everything is related to type 1 and ignore it, I am looking for a reason for why my hand has flared up. Does this sound like arthritis? I'm going to the GP ASAP but I want an idea of what it could be. This time the GP can't blame diabetes and warn me to control it.
