I am 42 and suffering with diabetic since past 3 years. Almost all the time my sugar levels are 230 - 400 (average). Due to my previous physic history, i never look like i am a diabetic patient. Last year april 2015, i got diabetic foot and my left foot started getting too much swelling and the bottom part of my foot turned black with puss (i didn't recognize it is because of diabetic. I though it was some misquote bite . Finally i met surgeon and he made some surgery and i was suffering with pain from the time.

I was taking rice that time and now i have reduced a lot and taking very little rice. Now my sugar levels down to 170 - 300 and still i am controlling myself.

in the recent days my foot (left and right) started became blackish and some sort of pain. The skin also became reddish from knees to foot.

I would like to know why its happening and what will be the cure?

Thanks in advance.

Dear technomatters ,

Please wake up!

A diabetic must take special care of his health.

Your problem is due to high blood sugar.And,high blood sugar is due to wrong diet.

Do not be hopeless!

You first consult a good doctor for immediate medication.

Then go for LC**(truncated diet).

After adopting this diet,you may not need any medication.
