Hi! I am a 62 year old female and I do have diabetes and have lost most of my sight in my left eye, and a little in my right eye. I also take a medication to kept my b/p up when i stand. But lately I have been forgetting a lot.For instant I throw the ball to my dog and I see where is goes and if she can t find it my husband ask where did I throw it, I can t remember at all. Also I feel like my insides shake and occasionally my hands just a little. My balance is off when i walk if its not even when I walk I feel 0ff balance.I don t know what to think am I just stressed?

Hi Wanda, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
Since how long are you Daibetic? You are having Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) which may lead to a Full Blown stroke. You have the risk factors for this. Kindly visit a ER and get yourself examined by a Neurologist and get a CT Scan of head done to rule out any pathology. You are also having Diabetic Retinopathy in both eyes.

Wish you Good Health, Take Care.
