About 1 year ago I was told I have Pre-Diabetes. Since then I have been on a wieght loss program and have been losing and have not had my blood sugar levels check since that intial diagnosis. With in the last few months my PTPost-traumatic stress disorder-INR levels have been WAY out of controlControl Control rx and we are unable to get it under controlControl Control rx. I have also been noticing that I am having more symptoms of Type II Diabetes. I have not starting doing anything until now becuase I was thinking that weight loss, high fluid intake and output, tingling of the feet, and fatigue were just from my attempt to get healthy. Can high blood sugar levels effect a PR-INR. For reference my IRN has been ranging from 4.3 and above and 1.8 or lower. I have been adjusting my Coumadin and having my INR check every 10 days for 3 months now and now one can undersand way I can not get a stableStable angina Unstable angina INR. This is why I am asking my question.
Hi Cleo! We are not medical professionals, just volunteers with life experiences in type 1 diabetes. Because I have no medical background, I have no idea what you are referring to when you refer to PTPost-traumatic stress disorder-INR, PR-INR or INR. Could you please enlighten me and perhaps I can do some digging and help you or at least point you in the right direction. Thanx!
PT-INR (the PR-INR was a mistype on my part) is a blood clotting test a lab does to determine how long it would take for you blood to clot. I wam really wanting to talk to some who has both Diabetes and Factor V Lieden (a blood clotting disorder). I did realize that the respondants on this site are not health care providers, I was just hoping to find some one with my same problems or find where I might go to find them.
Thanks so much for your reply
Thanks for the explanation! I apologize for not knowing what you were referring to. I sure hope that there are some folks out there who can share their own personal experience(s) with you to help in some way.
I'm another volunteer here & found this site with information on your Factor V Leiden (and a completely different condition called Factor V Leiden deficiency). If you haven't seen this site before, I perhaps it will be helpful for you.
