Hi. I don’t need whom u have consulted there. He needs to be seen by cardiologist. He needs ECG blood tests and other appropriate work up. His sugar is not controlled as well but first priority would be to check his heart. Thanks

Hi there. His blood sugars are not controlled which could be the culprit for pins and needles in the body along with weakness. High blood pressure is very common in diabetes patients which need proper control also otherwise the risk of getting complications will be doubled. So, he needs both blood pressure control and diabetes control in order to prevent further damage.
