I was just diagnosed two months ago with type two. I've experienced terrible pain from gout and edema. My doctor put me on a diuretic and I lost over 10 pounds in less than 48 hours. Nothing but water!

However it amplified the gout and put me in terrible pain everywhere. He took me off the diuretic and it got better.

He sent me to a specialist who changed my medicine and is sending me for a neuropathy scan today.

I am really nervous about it. I have to be there in a couple of hours and I am kinda scared. She says it's a very "uncomfortable" experience!

Gee Yikes! What's that mean???

Anyone else have experience with this?
