Hi, Since you are a known diabetic,few changes which have to be brought in are lifestyle modifications. If you have already not changed them or if you are not serious about them because they are the only steps which would help you the most. Drugs just bring down sugar for a few hours and then would raise back again and your body can become slowly resistant to the same drug dose so first you will have to bring lifestyle modification(changes) in yourself. 1)Eat a low-cholesterol, low-fat diet, ...

Hi, The treatment is mostly succesful in type 2 diabetes which you are suffering from(usually reserved for people in whom the sugar is not controlled by drugs and disease is chronic - you did not tell me anything about this point whether you are controlled on medicines or not.),but it will have to be confirmed by tests that you don't have any auto antibodies which means antibodies against your own cells. But the treatment is still not advocated commonly. ...

Hi, I am Satish Aggarwal (58 years old). I have been suffering from Diabetes since last 5 years. I was taking Tribet-2 (Abbott) till last month (one tablet in morning and one in evening). My sugar levels were around 170 (in random) while taking it. Last month I read in newspapers about side effect of Tribet-2 and my doctor advised me to switch to Diamicron XR MEX 500 (2 tablets in morning). While taking it my sugar levels have been around 240 (in random). Now I have just heard that there is some clarification from Tribet-2 that it is safe. My doctor has asked me to move back to Tribet-2. My query is that is Tribet-2 really safe ? and should I move back to it again ? Thanks, Satish

Hi, Yes this is true that tribet 2 is back in market, but they have allowed it with safety precautions written on the pack like its prone to cause bladder cancer. If you have repeated history of seasonal allergies or difficulty in breathing or you are working in place which deals with chemicals,then i would recommend you to avoid the drug. If you have any problems in urine like frequency or urgency or pain in urine report to your doctor immediately. ...

My details after 60 days are Wt 104Kg FBS 89 and PP 101. I was on Ismet 500, Piopar 15, Rosimet and Mitovit for last 2 months. My doc says progress is good. I want to know, can i ever stop medication and control sugar? Shall i be on medicines for ever?

diabetes is progressive disease. when diabetes appears 1st time almost 50-60% of pancreatic beta cells are lost. with diet and exercise you can control sugars. as the time progresses beta cells keep on decreasing. your progress is pretty good. metformin & pioglitazone increases insulin sensitivity and sitagliptin delays gastric emptying,promotes beta cells , glucose dependent insulin secretion and helps in weight loss. you might require to take medicines for life long but you can limit medicines ...

I'm very much afraid of this sir. Pls help me.. Reply for this:- Hi, First of all would like to clarify that it is not due to masturbation , it depends upon the cause whether it is curable or not. Do you feel any kind of numbness or any kind paresthesia in your hands or legs.

Actually i want to share a thing. I had laser surgery for my eyes before 2 years. That time doctor said my nerves are somewhat weak. May be its a family gene problem which could've occured for any others in your family. Anyway its not a problem for this surgery and they done it. I too okay with my eyes. As doctor said generally i feel nervous often. But last 6 months i feel kind of tickling or tingling in my hands and legs. I feel some like burning in my leg limbs. Others say all this occurs due to over masturbation. Help me..

My mother is 88 and recently diagnosed with afib/heart failure. She is on warferin and two other drugs, one is a diuretic and can't remember the other. She does not have diabetes and she is very thin. Of late, her calves and ankles have become very swollen and now she is weeping clear liquid through the skin on her lower leg. She will be visiting the doctor, but I was wondering what, if any, treatments there are for this condition.

Hi, the most probable, evident cause which can bring to legs swelling in this situation is heart failure worsening. Heart failure can progress even in case that patient accurately takes prescribed drugs. Atrial fibrillation complicates, worsenes the course of disease. Try to reach her doctor as soon as possible. Doctor may advice to increase diuretic doses, contunue treatment in-hospital states and in general fortified heart failure treatment brings the patient to a compensated condition within ...
