How long does it take to go blind from diabetes?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
There's no particular timeline that stands true for all patients, it depends on many factors such as age of diabetes onset, control of blood sugars, lifestyle and regular check ups.

View allI've been checking my blood sugar at home with a glucometer, and I got 99 before eating. Then, 2 hours after having lunchwhich was mainly a maida wrap, chocolate cake, and ice creamit shot up to 151, and 3 hours later, it was 148. Is this something I should be worried about?
Your current readings are slightly higher than normal but not alarmingly high. However, its important to monitor your blood sugar over time, especially after consuming foods high in refined sugars. If these numbers become more consistent, it's worth discussing with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like insulin resistance or pre-diabetes.

I'm a 28-year-old guy managing my blood pressure with amlodipine and nebicard 2.5. Lately, I've been dealing with vertigo, and after an MRI, the neurologist said I'm fine and just gave me some spinfree tabs. He also noted that my vitamin D level is 64 nmolL and recommended a mega dose of 600,000 IU intramuscularly once a month for three months. Prior to this, I was on a 60,000 IU weekly regimen for three months, then reduced to once a month for two months. Ever since starting the 600,000 IU injections, I've been feeling like my heart's racing and I'm getting sweaty all over. Is it safe for me to continue these high-dose vitamin D injections given that I have high blood pressure and a 2mm kidney stone that I'm hoping to pass with lots of water? Just feeling a bit uneasy since my doctor is a neurologist, not a cardiologist.
its ok to take injection of vitamin d, it will not effect on your blood pressure
