cortisone trigger diabetes?? and weight loss? helppp....
back to six month ago, before my c section my oby gyn injected me with betamethasone the night before surgery, the next day after surgery my blood pressure was as high as 160/100, and i was told preeclampsia postpartum, i doubt it cause i felt something wrong with my body, i keep losing weight, there fore i did a series of blod work and found my blood sugar was 100 ml/dl, usually i fast at 70s and post prandial always at 80s at 2 hour. now my postprandial usually around 120.
curious, i started to do surf internet, and find article and Jenny's website at bloodsugar 101, which suggest cortisone could probably induce diabetes even just a single dose.
i follow low carb diet, and another problem is that i keep losing weight, i am already underweight, eat protein i have some kidney problem, so i do high fat diet, but still lose weight. i dont wanna eat more carb, sinc i heard higher blood sugar will kill the rest of my beta cell, i am trying to preserve those beta cells, but i wanna put on weight, coz i look so skinny. can anyone uggest how to put on weight.
i also suffer from anxiety, perhaps due to i have to accept the fact that i have blood sugar imbalance. i wanna live longer to see my baby grow, so devastated about this desease, and hope i can live longer to wath my baby grow, and afraid that cortisone will affect her too?
talk to doctor but because my fastig bg always at 90s, most daoctor says i'm fine, but my post prandial showing that i have impaired bg. is it early stage of LADA, MODY , skinny type 2?
i e-mail several diabetes expert, most of them said its impossible to reverse my condition completely.

Acquafortis,
Actually I've read some article which tell that homeopathy in this case will do the magic in reversing steroid side effect. But I'm not sure there's homeopathic in indonesia, there're lots of alternative medication and traditional, but never heard of homepathic available here.
You're a homepathic. Any suggestion?
I believed steroid has lowered my immune system too. Do you think I can regain my health again?

Yes I am a homeopathic pharmacist.
Yes homeopathy can help you feel better.
What I can suggest is based on what you said here so it is quite limited. Homeopathy aims to establish again balance in the person as a whole identity not just the disease the person has. That is why it is called holistic medicine.
I can't see you or talk to you so a huge part of you for me is missing to "diagnose" precisely.
So all this said what I can suggest is Thuya. It is a renowned homeopathic remedy for cortisone intoxication.
Check if you have any homeopaths there, doctors or pharmacists. Check even what other holistic medicines or practices are there...they might not be expensive.
Let me know.
