Here are just a few that might help you! http://www.medhelp.org/diabetes/articles/Exercise-Safely-With-Diabetes/1702 http://www.medhelp.
Avatar n tn The commonest cause of pain in the calf is DVT or deep vein thrombosis and clots and post exercise. Pain in the calf area can also be due to pinched spinal nerves in the lumbo-sacral area or a pinched nerve at the knee joint. A nerve conduction study should be done. A MRI of the lumbar spine should also be able to throw some light. A deep vein thrombophlebitis or intermittent claudication (spontaneous spasm and relaxation of arteries) can also cause similar symptoms.
Avatar n tn My 9 year old may be showing a few signs of juvenile diabetes, such as headaches, fatigue, behavioral changes/mood swings, persistant hunger; sometimes she's sweaty, then can quickly become very cold. Bouts of blurry vision and "itchy" sensations during her temperment changes. Daily feelings of nausea (always early morning pre-meal and just before bed), particularly over the last month. Sleep at night seems to be relatively undisturbed.
Avatar n tn Let me try and answer your questions about exercise and diabetes. I am not aware of any connection between the onset of diabetes and over-exertion. Exercise helps people with diabetes keep their blood sugar in good control and within a normal range. Glucose is used while exercising, which would lower the blood sugar level, not raise it. If you are predisposed to developing type 1 diabetes, no amount of exercise will change this.
Avatar f tn Is it normal to have itching,fatigue,irritablility,insomina,pain always at a 5,anxiety.I was diagnosed in July with hepc and diabetes and the symptoms get worse by day.Haven't seen Dr. yet till tuesday to talk treament.
Avatar n tn I'm so embarrassed to even post this but way more embarrassed to go to my Dr. about it who is a good friend of mine. But i've been having really bad chest pains for the past 2 months. I've also been feel really nauseated through out the day and I never ever feel that way, not even when i'm pregnant or have the flu. ANd NO i'm not pregnant. I double checked that to be sure.
Avatar m tn One of the first books I read after being diagnosed with heart disease talked about the deferring of blood for digestion and the reverse of that for exercise. I think I can see the connection. Perhaps it's time for a new cardiologist. On another topic I read something you left for another reader that you would take s stenting over open-heart surgery any day.
Avatar f tn I have pre- diabetes (fasting blood sugar 107) and would like to start taking fish oil supplements for health reasons. I've read that fish oil supplements can raise your FBS and shouldn't be taken by diabetics. I would appreciate any thoughts, comments or advice.
Avatar m tn I do not eat before exercise at five thirty every day. I am taking metformin glimperide januvia and atenolol for my high blood pressure. Before i exercise blood sugars are 156. After exercise they go to 226. Why? I take my meds about fifteen minutes before my exercise routine. Blood sugars continusously drop as the day goes on. before dinner time they can be 100. after eating they drop to 60 sometimes.
Avatar f tn I am about 20 pounds overweight and have been trying to lose that to help with the diabetes. I have a healthy diet and try to exercise as much as I can. I also have Crohn's disease (which may have contributed to the onset of diabetes), so heavy exercise is out for me. I am young and rather active, but have a bad family history with diabetes and inflammatory bowel diseases. Sometimes I feel like no matter what I do my genetics always win.
325405 tn?1262290178 I was normal weight a little over 2 years ago before getting pregnant and got gestational diabetes and gained 90 pounds while pregnant. That turned in to type II diabetes after I delivered, and I feel like I'm stuck at too high of a weight right now (just over 200 pounds at 5'5"). I have taken a little off since being on metformin, about 5 pounds in 6 weeks. Is it just going to take a while? Can my doctor recommend a weight loss medication since I have diabetes?
Avatar f tn An easy way to lower blood sugar levels is to stay fit and healthy. Regular exercise not only helps lower blood sugar levels, but also helps fight infections. Staying active and taking regular exercise can also help with blood pressure problems. Exercise also helps control the body's weight and regulate cholesterol levels. This exercise does not need to be a grueling workout. Thirty minutes of exercise a day, even walking, will help to lower blood sugar levels.
Avatar m tn METHODS To investigate correlation between HBV DNA level with clinical parameters in patients with chronic hepatitis B, 92 male subjects with HBV infection without any risk factors for diabetes were enrolled in this study. Age and BMI of the study population were matched and HBV DNA, ALT, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), adiponectin and lipid levels was measured. RESULTS Serum HBV DNA correlated inversely with serum HDL level (r = -0.23; P = 0.014).
Avatar m tn Honey contains fructose, which in a majority of diabetics elevates glucose levels. One must make and maintain lifestyle changes in order to control and manage their diabetes and/or help reverse it. Reversing diabetes depends greatly on your unknown glucose levels and how long you've been that way. It depends also on your current body weight and diet.
Avatar f tn The best approach is low carb diet, with plenty of vegetables and unprocessed foods, exercise, and medications, if required.
Avatar n tn If your son was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes (Type I) it would mean his diabetes (at least in this day and age) is irreversible, unlike Type II diabetes which can be controlled by diet and excercise, without the need of insulin. If your son has all the symptoms of Type I diabetes and the doctors diagnosed him as such, I'm not sure if there are tests that can disprove their diagnosis.

Avatar n tn To prevent this, avoid excessive exercise, exercise in cooler climate, drink plenty of water, wear appropriate clothing and avoid drinking caffeine or alcohol as these liquids are dehydrating. Also get an evaluation done from a physician and check out the possible cause of anhidrosis.
Avatar m tn When your Doctor said that you were borderline, did he make any suggestions about controlling your blood sugar with diet and exercise? If not, either see another doctor, or a diabetic educator.
Avatar m tn i was diagnosed with fatty liver and hep c after my gallbladder removal. what is my prognosis, what can i expect?
Avatar n tn I was on the verge of collapse and quickly drank a 12 oz soda and some orange juice. My sugar then shot up to 145 and although shakey I felt a lot better. 30 more minutes rolled around, I ate rice and chicken, and in the middle of my meal I began feeling lightheaded again...sugar had dropped back to 52, so I drank another soda.
Avatar n tn Hypoglycemia and diabetes are two different conditions. I will share with you my knowledge of both. Hypoglycemia occurs when a persons pancreas produces too much insulin and their blood sugar drops low enough to produce symptoms of a low blood sugar that may include shakiness, sweating or clammy feeling, or mental confusion. When this happens, glucose needs to be given to raise the blood sugar to a normal level.
