How To Get Injured Without Even Trying
There has been a number of posts where people ask about niggles and injuries and I have certain qualifications on that front that some may find useful. If bored with nothing to do, you may as well read my long-ish post. Enjoy! 1. Why initial lifestyle change? On the outset all looked fine. I never had

Diabetes or Death?
I stopped eating alot of sweet things in general since Early September but in these past two weeks I have been more loose when it comes to my sugar intake, which makes me so afraid I have diabetes and will need an
amputation
, or that its a sign of a soon approaching death.

Feet and ankles are screaming at me!
Sorry for being dramatic, but I'm so fed up with my feet and ankles. They are always a problem for me but at the moment they are awful, making walking anywhere a misery. I have sharp pain in ankles and constant burning on the top of my feet and toes. I can't find anything remotely comfortable to wear

Paraphimosis
I've just googled it, and it's apparently a medical emergency as it can lead to gangrene and
amputation
!! No one answering phone on 24 hr DN support line. Not sure what to do - is it something that can wait until the morning, I haven't a clue.

Pernicious Anemia
Long story short, I ended with bone tumors, several surgeries and finally ended with a below the knee
amputation
9 months ago. During all this, I started losing weight, feeling off, brain fog, ringing in my ear and extreme anxiety.

Biggest Myths About Type 2 Diabetes Treatment. Are myths about diabetes keeping you from getting the most out of your treatment?
For example, a patient who comes to the hospital with very high blood sugar and gangrene may start insulin at the hospital but ultimately lose the affected limb — the patient might think the
amputation
was related to the insulin, but in reality, insulin might have prevented the complication if the treatment

Amazing Cure for Diabetic Foot Ulcers !! we are very thankful to Vaidyaraj Anil Dogra
Doctors had ordered
amputation
of the big toe. We did not want that because we had this issue before also with another uncle in family.
Amputation
is bad as such but the infection stays within and he died a year later due to sepsis.

PLEASE HELP!! Coumadin for Stroke -long term therapy; Raynaud's; Type II diabetes, Severe allergy, hypothroidism, migraines
All digits were very ulcerated by that time and
amputation
was considered. That fall I was looking for a job in another state. In the middle of my interview, I began shivering uncontrollably and my hands turned purple up to my wrists. The tip of my ears and nose turned purple too.

There's always amputation .... :)
Sitting here almost at bedtime and my right leg from the side of my foot and moving on up is 'plugged in'. Hate this feeling. I take codeine (not a heavy dose) when things get too bad but want to be cautious with that. I am limited what else I can take because of interactions with warfarin and heart

Feet- problems return
This is very scary as in 2015 they were talking about
amputation
if this Antibiotic they used didn't work . To this day they never were able to identify or have they seen anything like it since.

The first were implants which were done at the time of the
amputation
of my breasts. These were successful from a psychological point of view as I still had my form when I recovered from the op.

The cards of life
Hello my name is Tameka. I've been living with lupus for roughly 15 years and that's what pretty much killed off my kidneys. I've been doing dialysis since 2009, I've done PD and in-center hemo. I believe the roughest part of this was explaining it to my daughters that at the time was 8 and 10. Now it's

Amputation or drugs.
I'm a 57 year old who has had RLS for at least 20 years. I'm treated with ropinorol 2mg at 5pm and then again at 8pm. If I do not tak them at the right time my night is a living night mare. I have autoimmune hepatitis and fibromyalgia but for me I could bear the pain and the side effects to my liver
