hi everyone i wondered if anyone else with low thyroid or with M.E had any advice what medication they could cope with ??
I am housebound and often bedbound and have problems walking due to neurological symptoms in my legs although docs dont know if its the diabetes or not
I have been coping pretty well on a low carb diet and 1 500mg glucophage a day.this brought my Hb 1 to about 7-7.5
Everyoes been happy enough with that and i was copign ok
howver for the last month or more say several weeks my fasting sugars have increased from 7s to 8.8 and even 9s some morning.thishas co incided with me having to move out of my home for much needed refurbishments and staying in a noisy bedsit
I put the increase in my numbers down to stress.I am now home although I have several boxes and things to unpack and rehome after clearing them for painting.So Im still not stress free
Recently I also discovered my thyroid has shot down and Ive just started extra thyroxine to cope with this.
