Christine > It's coming along. I noticed late last year that I wasn't seeing things at distance as well as i was used to, and wrote it off as needing a new prescription. Then I was thirsty all the time, and over the course of a couple of weeks my vision went bad enough that something 5 feet away was a blur and looking at a computer screen was excruciatingly painful. And it dawned on me that I was probably diabetic, which was the case. I've been medicating for about a month, and my eyesight is passable, but my blood sugar is controlled at about 16mg/l, about double what it should be. I have another blood test on Monday, another doctors visit on Friday, and will probably have my medication increased. Something I learned was that the high blood pressure med I was on interfered with metformine. We got that fixed a week ago, and this week I feel a lot better than the warm turd I've felt like since the end of January. thanks bill -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
