tingling?
Firstly, thanks to all of you out there. You have been wonderfully supportive. A whole bunch better than the med proffesion.
My ? is. Does anyone out there notice a tingling in their tongues when sugars are going up or down? I have asked 4 doctors about this and they just look at me as if I have two heads. And not only that but don't offer anything even remotely informational. I have searched diabetes web sites and no reference. Perhaps real people like all of you might know if this is not just me. I am tired of being patted on the head and basically ignored. HELP! Cheers, AJ |
Cool
Way cool!! I seem to have reached registered status. It is sooooo very nice to belong.
This #*~&% disease is crummy enough let alone to feel as if I am struggling by myself. Of course then I do have you guys. THANK YOU !!! Cheers, AJ |

Hi A.J.
I haven't experienced toungue tingling myself, but I saw it in a list of hypoglycemia symptoms. It was either Dr. Berstein or a book called Blood Sugar Blues (don't have my books with me right now). Whichever, you appear not to be the only two-headed tingler around! catspaw |
Congrats on reaching Registered Status!
Couldn't you just knee your doctor? I hate it when I get that "look". I ditched my last physician over not listening to me and have a gem now who usually asks me what I think before he speaks. Great guy who is a white knight in the fight against this disease. Sorry I can't help on the tingling - have not been at this long enough. |
Knee?
Thank you Ruth for your reply. I have fired 3 doctors and the one I have now is not useful in the diabetes department. I am still looking for a good one.
Cheers, AJ |
No tongue, but feet
I have tingling like you describe in my feet (sorry, not the tongue). Goes like this:
Sugars below 150, no tingling. 150 to 175 tingling in both feet. over 175, tingling stops. Tingling starts again when my sugar starts to drop back into the 150- to 175 range, and goes away when I drop below 150. These numbers aren't exact, but I have tracked it several times on the way up, and the way down, and the pattern is very consistant. Actually, it's kind of neat. It's like a built in alarm that tells me when I've gone too high, and also to let me know that I'm comming back in line. Hope this helps, TMR |
