Hello .. Mr Sensowa .. at 64 years with diabetes.. average bl sugar 150 ... is this fasting or after food. It would help to know your HbA1C, what drugs are you on ?
Under ref to your joint pains the following information would be helpful
a) which joints ? small or large joints, any swelling ? is the pain more in the morning or at the end of the day ?
.... this information would help in concluding why there is the joint pain
b) Is there any pain burning sensation on passing urine or do u feel like passing urine again and again ? If there is evidence of Urinary infection, joint pains could be a reactionary in nature.
c) sexual potency has no direct relationship to joint pains.
