Asking For Father, Male 63, sahiwal
My father who is a stroke patient has been taking medicine for stroke and blood pressure and diabetes for five years. But there is a lot of burning in the sole of his right foot. And his doctor has given him medicine many times but there is no significant difference in the irritation.
tab methycobal 500mcg one in the morning one in the evening
tab Lyta 30mg at night
what's his diet ?
type 1 diabeties or 2
medication ?
What is HBA1c? And what about his sugar control?
Nerve Pain/Diabetic Neuropathy. It can start in one foot. There are many medicines for nerve pain but I would not recommend them because they could cause lot of drowsiness in his age. Just
keep his his Diabetes in good control.
