Anyone got advice for those that do get ulcers?
Had my 1st leg ulcer just before Christmas, healed up 2 weeks ago.

But started come back on Sunday, just been doctors and now on 3rd set of antibiotics since Christmas which can't be good.

Doctor seem suggest once you have scar tissue on legs no way to stop leg ulcers.

Any opinions or advice
 
I think it's a lot more to do with your BG being at a non-diabetic level for as many hours minutes and seconds of every day and night, than scar tissue, frankly.

So - is it?

No between 4 and 8 when testing, and hba1c in January was 50. Just lost 1stone cycling to work 6 days a week to.

You might get a better response, Blue Flash, if you started a new thread.
If people skim through the thread titles, they’re not necessarily going to want to read a rant about foot cream, and won’t realise there’s a query about foot ulcers half way down.
Admin (@everydayupsanddowns) could do this for you, I think.
