Hello everyone
I was diagnosed end of Sep with type 2 diabetes.
Main symtoms were fatigue and recurring UTI's. Was also diagnosed with Hasimotos disease and under active tyroid at the same time.
At my diagnosis my HbA1C level was 98.
Ive been on meds for 3 months now and diet changed, but at my 3 monthly review, my HbA1C level is now 125.
I have had repeat UTI's (4 or 5 since Sep)
I am extremely fatigued, my life has totally changed because of this.
Am waiting to hear from diabetes specialist as to what medication I need to move onto, and in the mean time I have to double the dose of my metformin.
Has this happened to anyone else. Is this quite normal when newly diagnosed?
Thanksnfor taking the time to read. ❤️
