Hi insulin addict. Ive been to see the diabetic specialist today at the hospital.He told me off for letting my blood sugars run high,until i explained to him that in recent weeks i,ve had 3 really bad hypo,s,and for 1 of them the ambulance had to be called out to me and bring me round using a glucose drip.this has never happebed before in 36 years of being on insulin.doc told me to try to get them down,but not to low,which is what ive been doing since 1973.Easier said than done though sometimes.He asked me about the amitryptyline so i told him how bad my legs and hands have become and that my hands had improved.He said to go back to my GP and get a higher dose.He is also referring me to a vascular surgeon for my legs.dont know why because they have been telling me for years that nothing can be done for nerve damage.maybe they have found some kind of treatment.Oh well i can only hope.bye for now.hope your ok.
