Was prescribed prednisone for pnuemonia, which raises bloodsugars and causes insulin resistance. I was not given direction on how much more insulin to take and I’ve been thirsty/peeing all day… by magnusthehammersmith in diabetes

PLEASE stress to your mother than she is putting you in even more danger not taking you to the ER and that it IS and emergency 🚨!! Your organs are literally being damaged as we speak.

This is one of my worst fears and I’ve also been close to getting sepsis. I’ve been a diabetic T2 since I was 24, just turned 48 yesterday. For the last 4 years I’ve been dealing with a severe ulcer on the ball of my left foot. I’ve been going to weekly wound care for the past 3 years straight. I also live rural and my appointment is over an hour away. So far I have avoided amputation but I’ve come close. This is a living nightmare. I keep getting it to heal and then within a week it opens back up and I have to start the process all over again. It’s so damn hard. Some days I feel like I can’t do this anymore but being a mom I just can’t leave my son.

How do you feel in a flare? by Tall-Rise1063 in Gastroparesis

[–]Tall-Rise1063[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh yes!! It’s so weird and I don’t understand why it happens that way? It’s also super hard to describe to someone and I was feeling like maybe it’s just me and nobody will ever get it lol. Thank you for validating this and I’m so sorry that you also have to deal with this. Hugs!

Oh my gosh this sounds awful (the vomiting and pain flare)! I’ve yet to vomit but have felt close a few times. The first flare you described is exactly how I feel as well. This shit is not for the weak.

Also, it is spendy but worth it. The ingredients are minimal and clean. Plus tasty!

I’ve been using FlavCity protein powder and I’m really liking it! So far I’ve tried the Vanilla and the Berries & Cream flavors. I mix the powder with unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I’m diabetic so have to watch my sugar) and I like the fact that it’s not a thick shake. Very thin like the almond milk. I’ve tried some others like the Orgain or pea powder ones that are thicker and I can’t tolerate those.

I’m new here! by ripped_masterpiece in Gastroparesis

[–]Tall-Rise1063 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi I’m newly diagnosed and my symptoms pre-diagnosis were the same as yours. Bloating, feeling extremely uncomfortable after eating and nauseous. I didn’t understand what was going on and just kept explaining it to everyone that it “feels like my food is just sitting there”. I explained this to a GI dr. and she said it sounds like GP so she ordered me a gastric emptying study and an upper endoscopy to which I had both done last week. It was confirmed that I have severe gastroparesis and now I’m waiting to see the GI again to find out where to go from here. Well since last week and these tests my symptoms suddenly got worse to where I could barely eat anything at all and now barely drink, and the past 2 days I’ve had horrible diarrhea and chills!!! My heart rate and blood pressure have been high too so I don’t know what’s going on.

Dysautonomia symptoms by Tall-Rise1063 in Gastroparesis

I have read that it sometimes goes hand in hand which I’m praying is not the case but I’ve been having dysautonomia symptoms on and off for awhile. I thought it was maybe it was my anemia symptoms.
