Seems to me that having a 2 year-old would be enough, by itself, to make anyone feel as if they are deteriorating. Then throw Diabetes on top of it and WHOOF. That's more than I could handle.

It didn't get better again! So since then I have been on antibiotics for well over 6-7 months and I have also have had 4 CT scans done. Well I finally confided in the OB DR at my hospital and he did a test and it confirmed that I have a hospital-acquired strain of MRSA. The infection is resistant to antibiotics and will require a lengthy hospital stay if what were trying doesn't work.

Proves, once again, that medicine is an art as much as it's a science.

Now to add to things, my eye has been giving me trouble to a point I have to squint even though I'm wearing my glasses or contacts.
1st question I'd ask is have you have eyes checked lately? Sounds as if you're of an age where there can be rapid changes to vision. (wife worked at eye Dr. for a number of years)

Another frightening thing happened this morning when I woke up at 3:30 am to a numb left hand. It felt as if I had slept on it and had the feeling of needles.

Happens to me once in a while, although I'm considerably older than you, I just don't worry about it if it goes away after several days.


Don't know if any of this helps............but............hang in there.
