1281603 tn?1283798699 I would like to add to that advice that diabetic complications are very real and to encourage everyone diagnosed with either form of diabetes or even pre-diabetes to take responsibility to monitor and control your blood sugars on a daily basis. We tend to trust doctors to keep us well and especially here in the U.S. we rely on medication for EVERYTHING. No doctor can follow us around 24/7 and make sure we eat right, exercise, maintain healthy weight and take the meds they actually prescribe.
Avatar n tn Go to the nearest ER. The doctor should look at the wound, treat it, then run tests to check for parasites. He/she should also start your bf on antibiotics. As troy stated, this is a diabetic forum. I replied because years ago I got a parasite infection from a nick while in CR.
Avatar n tn I might be working a there again this summer, still waiting to hear back. I highly recommend diabetes camp for kids and teenagers. It truly helped me understand and take better control of my diabetes. And I still have friends that I talk to that I met that first year I was there.
Avatar f tn s age, but reasons could include diabetes with uncontrolled glucose, onset of nuclear cataracts, and degenerative myopia with progressive axial growth of the eye and retinal degeneration. Your sister should see an ophthalmologist for a complete exam, including dilation. She may also need to see a retinal specialist.
Avatar m tn I am 21 years old, had a had a baby a year ago and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes almost 1 month and a half ago. And I have definitely noticed a significant amount of weight gain. I am still trying to get a handle on my diabetes. I am using FlexPen and take 2 shots of 24 units a day. I am starting to get depressed by all the weight gain and even just the daily fight with my Blood Glucose.
Avatar f tn pdf Many users here would gladly trade places with you because they already have cataracts, macular degeneration, uveitis, retinal bleeding from diabetic retinopathy (smoking doubles the risk of diabetes). Lots of people develop these diseases even though they do not smoke. There is often no reason why these problems arise in patients and severely affect their eyesight.

1415482 tn?1459702714 Hi there! So I just posted in the MedHelp suggestions forum about starting a "hobbies club". Lets face it, Medhelp can be a tad bit depressing sometimes for all, whether posting or assisting with an issue. I know for certain communities which deal with mood disorders and other emotional aspects, it would be nice for members to relate in a way that makes them feel good. Getting lost in a hobby or the discussion of same, can be quite a relief.
Avatar n tn t sleep most nights. Even the sheets hitting her leg is too much to take. She was negative for diabetes and she had vascular tests done that were all normal. The doctor now wants her to have a biopsy done. Are they thinking skin cancer? Even from a little cut from a razor? She' never been a sun worshipper. I'm worried. Thank you for any information.

Avatar f tn now on my fourth babie and my doctor let me skip the glucose test and sent me right to the diabetes educator..which I agreed ..why put my body threw all that when most likely I'll have it again. .so I've been checking my sugar for a few days now and it's been normal even on the low side?? I'm only 14wks ..could it be it just haven't kicked inn yet?? Or is it possible I might escape it all together this time around??
1388999 tn?1370042814 Apart from having a licence to keep keep Pets I think that it should be part of the curriculum of all schools starting from Primary up to High schools teaching about the care of of animals. From what I can see about half of posts on here that need help are from people that know nothing about the basic care of a Dog.Most of those ailments that these poor mites have is brought about through neglect and ignorance Because they Do Not Know.
