Diabetes heart problems.

(Wilkes-Barre, Pa., U. S. A.)

Shortly after bipass surgery (about one year), I became "pre"diabetic and was put on metfomin, which was working fine with a blood sugar level ranging from 95 to 125.



Then I took a stress test and the MD's mistakenly gave me a double dosae of digoxin to regulate my heart beat and stopped my heart, basically killing me (they said).



As a result, I am now wearing both a defibrilator and a pace maker. Also, I was put on many medications including insulin.


The insulin has caused me to have a huge gut, especially just below the belly button, and I went from a 30 inch waist to a 36 inch waist within three months, and increased the size of my breasts many fold.



I am told this hugh increase is "sometimes normal" by prescribers, and there is "nothing" they can do to relieve it because insulin goes to these two areas. I don't like my pot belly or my woman sized breasts.


Am I stuck with them? Because of the heart problems, I am limited in what excercises I can do. Anyone with suggestions or answers will be greatly appreciated.
