She will need insulin o. To be taken regularly. This is type 2 diabetes. Go to a reliable doctor. If her sugar level is well controlled, she won't need to go through that.

I'm a type 1 diabetic and am broke right now and unable to buy this expensive insulin. I've only eaten 4 times this week.

I also have malaria now that I can't treat well because no money. This life is not easy


I couldn't walk past your story....May God help you Bro. Send your account number.

Hello NL.
I'm going to keep this brief.

It started three weeks ago. my mum, who was walking normal with no problem suddenly could not walk. Her left leg began paining her severely that day. My mum was all in tears... She was rushed to the hospital where it was discovered that her sugar level was on the high side. The hospital gave drugs which stabilised it, at that point my mum was very weak, couldn't eat, each time she eat she throws up and also had some pain in the leg still. After a week in the hospital, we were then referred to a teaching hospital after a test showed that creatinine in her kidney was high.

The teaching hospital tried their best and I can say my mum is now okay. Except for the left leg. She can't still walk on it, the leg feels cold to touch with a little discolouration above the foot.

Doppler test showed that blood isn't really flowing through the leg. And they said they will need to amputate the leg to prevent the infection from growing to the other parts of the body.

Please I want to know if you know anyone who had similar condition and amputation was recommended but was later healed without need for amputation.

Please share your recommendations. I need my mum now more than before in my life. We are confused on whether to allow them to go on with the amputation or seek other alternatives.

Thank you very much.

Pls note that as at now, her sugar level, creatinine and other things are normal.

Dunno if this is applicable but Someone close to me has had diabetes and she was gas injury which couldn't heal we took her to a very popular hospital and they told us amputation was best
Until we had to move her to a government that we knew that wasn't required but it comes with alot of stress you'd spend ehn on blood and drugs
But in the end she all good and hearty now
We thank God
So please I'd advice u should try having another expert look at it cuz e no easy o to just take person leg like that, I understand she's in pain but if the leg is just partly affected they should clean the area and try to awaken the cells around there except if its dead (that's if it dark then amputation is best(

Sorry about your mums issue. Let me be straight with you. I will advise you don't subscribe to that amputation. Why? Because there is solution and she will be walking again with the same leg. Try and reach me asap. I don't say you should belief me right now anyway. Zero seven zero eighty one ninety six sixty three thirty eight. Your choice.

My dear sincere sympathy. Prosthesis is inexpensive. I guess your mother has a poorly controlled diabetes. Beyond your mum, all your sibs should periodically screen for DM. Definitely amputation is what she needs now. That foot must been gangrenous.[excellent advice, please take to this. So that she won't let
Loose the whole lower limb.

Honestly it depends on the degree of tissue damage, there are many needless amputation that has been done in this country, but that’s majorly because of the our medical system. Either way mehn, I’m sorry for your mum’s predicament, and I wish her speedy recovery, my advice would be to seek multiple opinion however should be done very quickly as gangrene spreads fast, anything that makes it gets to the bone means the leg gotta go , no matter what

Differentiate:

Like everything is not working. Whites won't think of amputation at all they'll look for other means of survival
But here reverse is the case . op pls they should not amputate her leg .the elder sister of my mum suffered same thing after money was spent she's walking perfectly now.
Spark2 pls you said lastly that everything about her is now normal . don't allow whack doctors to amputate your mom.

They will...they do amputation here for advanced stage diabetes neuropathy. Earlier caught and managed is when they won't talk about amputation.

nephropathy, retinopathy and neuropathy are common complications from diabetes. possibly your mum is having the third one, peripheral neuropathy which can lead to paralysis of her leg. though I am not a doctor but, the amputation is better since neurons hardly regenerate (after damage)
