[QUOTE="lilibet, post: 29598, member: 11459"] Hi Trink To get full blood count next week - thyroid to be part of it. Along with liver, iron, b12, etc etc Symptoms feel a bit like they did post diagnosis for inital week(s), but went away briefly and now back so dont know if it is just diabetes related (has only been 5 weeks). DSN and GP dont think bs to blame as stable (though higher than Id like). Dont know if rising pp bs would make me feel like this but dont think so as tends to be like this most of the day. However, lightheadedness (foggy, spaced out as opposed to vertigo type feelings) is actually bad enough to the point where I havent felt able to do much the last couple of days or go out. BP a bit low (110/60, usually in range of 117/70 so not a severe drop) but GP basically saying that if it this, combined with diabetes, change in diet etc then she cant do owt. HAve upped the salt a bit but dont want to over do it. Am actually getting quite worried and down about it now. :( Prepared/willing/able to put in work with the diabetes but its just too easy for medics to put things down to dx or anxiety related. Was wondering if reduce carbs might be to blame - though dont think so as portions not that severely cut. Also not deyhdrated - drinking plenty. Where's Dr Katherine when you need her? Lilibet [/QUOTE]
