I've recently been diagnosed with borderline diabetes at 52 yrs old because my blood sugar was 130 after 12hrs of fasting. Assuming the diagnosis is right i have a question about the affect of diabetes on sleep. Sometimes at night i get so hungry i cant sleep until i eat to calm he craving down. In the hours between eating and when i drop off i get a twitching in my muscles which makes it hard to sleep.I wonder if this is an affect of high blood [email protected]
You may have "restless leg syndrome". I don't think there is a strong association with diabetes and blood sugars levels. I am not sure though when blood sugar levels are really high. I find that doing some leg exercises even in the middle of the night to point of fatique lets me fall back to sleep.. Larry
Cravings can be cut by lemon juice. Stay away from diet dodas sweetened with Aspartame/Nutrasweet and anything thathas this sweetener. Be sure to read list of reactions at www.relfe.com/aspartame_92.HTML -
