My brother has been very sick for a while now,he has diabeties one,he is 59yrs old.He drinks and takes pain meds.He gets up every morning sick as a dog .He cant eat or sometimes he cant get out of bed because he is so sick to his stomach.The other day he went to the hospital and they did a ct of his stomach and a cbc.They said they both came back fine so they sent him home he is still very sick and has lost 20lbs,he does not have ins because he has not worked in a while .If something was wrong with his kidney liver ect.would it show up in a cbc?

Fluctuating level of blood sugar may cause weakness,tiredness,
To have strict diet control with regular exercise,an regular antidiabetic drug and insulin will help.
Hope this information helps.
