by pbeachbabe2, Feb 13, 2008 08:51PM

I have not been dx with diabetes, but my fbs has been running 192 to 250. My question is could this cause me to loose almost all of my hair, my legs numb and tingly, sore leg muscles, weakness, fatigue, feeling of passing out, nausea, down appitite, ect?

Well diabetes can cause all of those symptoms EXCEPT hair loss. But there may be other things going on there that you need to get taken care of. I would see a Dr. if you are concerned and you definately need medication or life style change to correct your diabetes.
