Welcome to the forum, what kind of blood pressure pills are you taking ? It may be a side effect of these or maybe stress related.

I think you should discuss this with your doctor. It may be a side effect of one or more of your tablets.

hi sue

thanks for that , yea i have to see him soon , i've never experienced any thing like it before, it really is quite worrying once woken up it,s no sleep after that, night after night , oh i did forget to say i also have a 12cm syst on the liver which is very uncomfortable to say the least, i 'm waiting on the nhs to decide what they will do if anything . hc

Have you by any chance been taking any flu remedies?

hi sue

yes, antibiotics for flu, dont remember the name of tablets , a three week course finished them on christmas eve, reason i was taking them , as mentioned after my swine flu jab, but before i started to developing flu symtons my diabetic nurse she called me in for six monthly checks between the two flu jabs time period which she herself administered , from the results of the blood test she immediately had a prescribtion waiting for me for metaformin before i arrived to see her without even discussing it with me first , by then i had developed flue symptoms . (diabetics + flue symptoms = bgs ????

I complained about this to the doctor who agreed to a three week course of the antibiotics first, i'm now in holland visiting my daughter now for the new yrs holiday, and having problems still, to be honest i think these symptoms that i get developed before the antibiotics where started . hc

Viruses can affect blood sugar levels. As for the weird feelings you will have to ask the doctor.
