Diabetes Type 2: and the other symptoms you mention indicate the need to continue staying w/your doctor. They also suggest a need for a change in your diet. Please ask your doc about a low carb/higher protein food plan. Type 2 Diabetes can be reversed and you will feel better but it takes work at first. Peace and good health.
