Flyfisher, I'm sure you know that your body has a harder time healing with Type II diabetes. Has you taken antiobiotics since you've been feeling badly? If you've got a fever, there's got to be a cause. Some diabetics (my Dad included) have to take antibiotics everytime they get sick because it always turns into an infection. With a low grade fever and feeling generally bad your glucose may be out of whack. Illness makes it harder for your body to control your glucose levels. That may be contributing to why you feel bad.
Since you've posted in the older cysters threads, I know I won't offend you if I ask whether the monthly feeling bad be related to your cycle, peri-menopause or menopause? Years ago, I contracted a really bad intestinal virus. For almost a year after that, I felt horrible around my period - very nauseated and tired. It never made any sense to me, and the doctor's answer was to put me on BCP, so I'm pretty sure it never made any sense to him either.
You need to get to the root of the low grade fever if it doesn't clear up. Your doctor should run some bloodwork to look for the cause. |
