I am now at 2 1/2 years past Ck .... for the past 1 1/2 years or so I have had headaches, dizziness, a light headiness, etc. fatigue as i would almost fall asleep after lunch ...
2 weeks ago, I went to the primary care doctor for the annual follow up on the blood pressure meds and wellness check up.
He listened about the AN issues .... signed new script of pain pills and walked out the door. He stuck his head back in and asked about my blood sugar. He asked of family history and decided to check my sugar levels. A finger prick and a test strip showed it to be 200.
2 weeks of 2 pills a day and change of diet (no white flour, no sugar, no cokes, no potatoes) --- I have lost weight and feel a lot better. A LOT better.
Some head aches - a lot fewer.
Dizziness - much reduced.
fatigue - a Sunday nap is good but none of the wanting to nod off at work ....
in Reading the literature given to me - head aches, dizziness, etc are part of the symptoms .... for diabetes.
the doctor warned me this AM of a honeymoon affect ... the good may not last - but he can adjust meds as necessary.
thank goodness that he stopped and came back in the room to ask about diabetes ....
for the presnet, I am in a new world ....
food for thought!
