What Causes Leg Pain, Tiredness And Vomiting In A Type 2 Diabetic?

My husband has leg pain in his left lower leg and is having difficulty putting weight on it. He told me that he slept for quite some time and woke up somewhat disoriented for a short time. He then became quite ill and vomited quite severely. He is very tired still. He is type 2 diabetic and his sugar level is currently about 125.

Hi, there are many issues with the diabetic patients. The first thing is that the neuropathy causes pain and weakness in legs, second muscular weakness may also be associated with diabetes. You should have his blood tests done for kidney function tests, lipid profile and HbA1C. Mecobalamin should be given as a supplement.
