Hi doctor. Good day. I m 60 yrs old, female & jobless. I have a history of diabetes and HPN, osteoarthritis on my lumbar and having pain on my right wrist and lrigger finger on my left middle finger. I have also catarract of both eyes but the right one is not yet that thick as per my ophtha coctor. I have been on a lot of medications and vitamin supplements due to my chronic diabetes. May I know if it s safe to take pregabaline 75 mg as part of my lifetime medication? and also citicoline 1G? I ve been a diabetic for over 15 yrs and on 2 kinds of insulin injections (Apidra 6 units TID and Lantus 22 units OD), on Jardiance Duor 1000/25 mg, rescribed by my endocrinology doctor and have controlled hypertension on clopidogrel 15 mg, atorvastatin 80 mg OD due to my high LDL & HDL. My endo doctor prescribed me also vitamins such as calcidin with D3, vit C with Zinc, & vit B complex all to be taken once a day.. My endo doctor monitored my blood works every 3 months. I m trying on low carb diets and more of fish. skinless hicken & vegies & more of water intake. My HbA1c fluctuates. I work a lot for household chores at home and sometimes on my skywalker exercises if I m not so tired of my house works. I have no other house helper at home. My kids are voth working and ages 22 & 28 & quite busy at work. Most often I have back pains using my cane and knees pain. What must I do also when I m experiencing mild pain and itchiness on ny groins and around my labia minora? I m scared of taking antibiotics thinking my viatmins will be depleted or destroyed if this is the right word. I understand that the cause maybe is ue to my diabetes. My ophtha docor told me I can have a catarract removal of both eyes one by one but my problem I have not enough money yet for the best lenses so I can see better. I am still saving some money due to very costly lenses.I try doing some walking outside my house esp. to the church as it s just a walking distance from our house. Kindly advice or ehlp me more what to do and reply to my questions. I would highly appreciate your reply(ies) to me ASAP. God bless.
