i'm sorry your mom is going through this. it sounds like a very uncomfortable situation. if it's been less than a week since your mom saw the doctor then you may just need to hang in there awhile longer. the symptoms you describe could be caused by many conditions including a cold virus. you may need to take a "watchful waiting" approach to see if the situation gets better or worse. if it gets better then great! if it gets worse i'd suggest a return trip to the doctor. keep in mind i'm just making suggestions. i am not in a position to suggest a diagnosis or give medical advice. hope your mom feels better soon! hi to both of you and i too am concerned about my wife debra who is type 2 seven rods in her back dvt in her legs going thorough menopause has alllergies and she has all things that you have been experiencing. you have to look at everything. i tell my wife debra to invesigate everything and find out what works for her and her doctor said too that everything was fine. i told her to research her metformin and she decreased it by 1000mg a day. guess what she has never felt better all because she has been losing weight. everybody needs to adjust things in this life. we also need to look at other things and it may be or not the problem like weather flu colds nurtition. try theses immune boasting foods- elderberry button mushrooms acai berry oysters watermelon cabbage almonds grapefruit wheat germ low fat yogurt garlic spinach green&black tea sweet potato and broccoli and my favorite beets. my wife just said it could be stress and or associated the nerves so the b-vitimins would be area to start. i have to go bye steve & debra tell her to goto another doctor those are also symptoms of a heart attack. don't want to cause undue worry but i had those symptoms that was leading up to my heart attack. since she is diabetic you have to rule out hypoglycemic headace get a grbs tested if grbs is less than 60 mg ask her to take some sugar or candy. treatment for gastritis can also be given. a neck xray can rule out cervical spondilitis 0 0 0 i have a very similar problem. it seems to be a side effect of taking insulin. it starts with a tightness and pain in the back of my neck and then progresses into a headache. it becomes nearly unbearable. i have stopped taking the novolog and within 24 hours or so it goes away. i also get extreme weakness shakiness and extreme pain in my spine. this is not a listed side effect. my doctors have not heard of this side effect nor do they know what could be causing it. the only thing i have found is that people with ms and type 1 (i have not been diagnosed with ms and i have type 2) sometimes get neck pain but it did not explain why. i’m not sure my doctors actually believe this is happening. i also had the same experience when taking humolog lantus and levemir. by the way the lantus and levemir increased my blood sugar levels. i have sensitivity to many medications and often get the opposite effects from what is expected. i cannot function from these side effects and i am concerned about not taking the medication. i also experience nausea. has your mother experienced anything like this?
