I was researching some of ur videos on type 2. Diabetes I have been diagnosed approx 2-3 yrs have dementia can t remember dates at all anymore got my A1C down to 6.7 a few months back before my depression took me down deep again and I screwed that al l up. The PA I saw instead of my reg Doc changed my entire approach, it is not working for me! I tried to give it a full month, but today I snapped and went back to the approach my PCP had me on I made that approach work once so I know I can again. I believe I will need more help w/my depression issues though and have set an appt to see my PCP. The nueropathy in my feet is almost more than I can bear anymore and is moving up to my hands as well now. I can t stand anything touching my feet now ( like my shoes, it burns my skin to the touch) I bought some footies for that but they r also uncomfortable to the touch. I have never had a foot exam that I can remember* and have 2 toes 1st & 2nd digit that give me great concern the last 3 digits have been numb almost 2 yrs all digits r becoming numb as well as the foot. Fingers now too, occasionally all the way to elbow. What can I do about this?I ve spent my fixed income for this mos already and do not have 15$ left in my account. I am sorry for wasting your time. I will be able to see my PCP on the 31st when he gets back from his cruise. I do thank you though and will remember the cost when I have more funds for the mos had to buy an a/c for my room this mos & it set me back too much. T U 4 being there. I Willy prepared next time I have a question. T U AGAIN!
Hi, Though you have not mentioned your age, you have controlled diabetes. Neuropathy can be treated by Pregabalin while for depression contact your nearby psychiatrist. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
