Do you blame diabetes.. Do you blame every little physical problem on diabetes?
Perhaps it's just because the diagnosis is still so new and also, anxiety doesn't help. Mix that with the fact that I'm now paying attention to so many things about my body, the way it feels, moves, thinks, etc....(stuff that I didn't do before because I was "healthy"), but I find that I tend to blame diabetes for any physical problem I have now, and I just can't convince myself that it isn't related to diabetes.
For example, for the last 24 hours I've had this little "numb" spot on my tongue. This may seem trivial to most but when you have this feeling you can't ignore it, like a small dry spot on my tongue (or like a bit of popcorn that I can't get off). So, I figure, it must be something that the diabetes is causing.
I'm wondering, am I alone in this predicament?
