Diabetes Examination - Diabetes Annual Review and Foot Examination - Dr Gill

[@melaniecoughlin7]

Interesting information! My doctor has never advised me to hold off on my meds while ill. I wonder if there's anything else mine has missed.

[@DrJamesGill]

“Sick day rules” are important for diabetes It’s to do with dehydration, so diarrhoea and vomiting particularly www.rxfiles.ca/rxfiles/uploads/documents/SADMANS-Rx.pdf

When she talked about the metformin and how it affects her, I felt that. It was the first medication I was put on when I was diagnosed with diabetes and I hated being on it. It was helping my blood sugar but I was miserable I had to have a new medication

Metformin can be quite harsh in the first 2-3 weeks, but it should settle down. There are also alternative formulations which may lessen s/e

[@DrJamesGill]

You don’t need to be seen face to face, as long as getting your yearly diabetic bloods, the review can be done over the phone (But I personally hate using the phone for these things)

[@CullenPC]

Fascinating. I was diagnosed as diabetic a couple years back and with severely high blood pressure to the point whenever I go in and they check my pressure they ask me if I'm alright and recommend going to the hospital. I've never had my feet checked though. Although it's given to me, Metformin doesn't agree with me and interups my day to day, so I don't take it and I just use the trulicify injections.

[@DrJamesGill]

Metformin can upset some peoples stomach. The advice I give in that situation is I) an upset stomach from it normally lasts about two weeks, and we need to persevere through it to make it stop

[@DrJamesGill]

Ii) taking the metformin 20mins before food often helps settle things

[@DrJamesGill]

Iii) if those don’t work, there is a modified release version that also helps. But there ares one people who just can’t get on with it

Is this video tailored more towards people with type 2 diabetes, or is this annual review done with all diabetic patients?

Broadly annual review with all diabetics. But it’s most commonly done like this with T2. As T1 will almost certainly be on insulin +/- other meds.

[@matzeb3007]

What is the correlation between the feet and diabetes?

[@DrJamesGill]

With diabetes the peripheral nerves can be damaged People tend to notice when they can’t feel things with their fingers, but more often miss it with the feet It’s important to check, as peripheral neuropathy can lead to injuries, which then don’t heal, causing ulcers and possible amputation.

[@jinvid]

@@DrJamesGill that’s right, otherwise….AMPUTATION!!

You mentioned it quickly, but is flu vaccine available to anyone in the UK? I think here in Sweden, only those at higher risk, such as the elderly or ones with other complications can get them. I know I've never been offered it, in fact, I never knew it was a thing until recently.

[@Upthefluff505]

Free for those at high risk, available to everyone else at a small cost from most pharmacies :)

[@lewisgardner1660]

I am not sure if you can give any idea as to why my sugar levels drop off , three days ago I was taking 26 humalog mix in the morning with 500 mg of metformin 500 mg of metformin at lunch time and 26 units of humalog mix with 500 mg metformin in the evening, today my sugars on waking were 5.5 and they are normally 8 or 9 so I lowered insulin to 16 but still took metformin lunch times sugars were 7 still took metformin this evening sugars 5 so I took 10 insulin with 250 mg of metformin had my meal and an hour later my sugars were still 5 but I was starting to feel light headed so I had a bread roll and some chocolate and hour later sugars are at 6. This happened about a year ago about the same time of year, I ended up off all insulin and off all metformin, I also take one injection of trulicity once a week, my diabetic GP don’t seem that bothered by it but it concerns me as to why it would happen, last year I had an ultrasound on my Pancras to make sure there were no tumours but ultrasound only could see half pancreas due to gas. I have tried a different blood glucose tester still the same. I did have a bout of diarrhoea last sat I don’t know if that might have something to do with it? Sorry for long message

[@DrJamesGill]
