I want to know about blood sugar.

[Teresa26]

How do I take care of when my doctor does not believe me? I take 2 to 3 glucose pills a day to regulate from getting sick. If I go without eating i will get sick and faint. So i carry glucose pills to use during that time. if i work to much i get to where i am gonna faint. I also have circulatory problems in my legs and feet. My legs feel itchy all day at night i cant sleep with restless leg syndrom. it drives me crazy. my feet are alweays itchy and cold. what do i do.

Hi there. If you need to take glucose pills often because it feels sick and perhaps giddy you need to get your baseline blood sugar levels checked. You could be suffering from undiagnosed diabetes and slipping into spells of hypoglycemia inadvertently.  Also the itchiness could also be tingling due to peripheral neuropathy often seen with diabetes. An Hb1AC could be tested to see the long term glucose control in your body.
Please check with an endocrinologist and take care.
