What Causes Frequent Sickness During Treatment For Type-1 Diabetes And Neuropathy?
I am a type 1 diabetic for 30 years with gastroparisis, retinopathy, and neuropathy. In the last cpl years I ve noticed I get sick very often if I am working outside. I used to be able to work 12 or more hours a day in the heat with no problem. Today went to work to mulch a property and got sick before i emptied a wheelbarrow and was only there for 40 mins. What can I do to keep myself from getting sick while working? I don t want to lose my job because of it. If you know anything I can do to keep from getting sick that would be a great help to me. I thank you for any advice.
