I had the best CKD and diabetic day today that I've had in a long time and it meant great sleep despite my usual PTSD insomnia. In the a.m. I had some diabetic dizziness from low sugar, but eating got rid of it. The shooting pains in my legs and the burning sensation in my hands, though, was so much less that it was as if I were cured of CKD. I know better, I won't go into denial, but that's how GOOD it was. YAY! I walked double my 1 km daily goal, then, 2.19 km! :-)
Thanks, y'all for supporting me through this past week's bad nights so I could enjoy a blessed day like today!

kudos on pausing for a sharing of appreciation.
I was even able to pour a 10 gallon jg of drinking water into the spout tank, which is pretty amazing. I took the dog for a walk, too, and clocked an extra 0.68 km beyond my 1 km daily goal for a 1.68 total. It was really gorgeous out, so much so that I took a picture of the golden sunset over these Mexican mountains down here. I'm really grateful for this day I had.
But my CKD nerve damage in my legs hurts less today again, and so I did have a good long 1.74 km walk with my poodle again, well over my daily 1 km walking goal. I'm still standing and not in my wheelchair as I was repeatedly last year, and I'm grateful.
However, the CKD nerve damage's spread to my hands now really hurts. Support for that welcome.
..Sending support for your hands. Is the cream you were using not as effective anymore? Praying for the solution.
Right, LadyLight, the cream I was using stopped working. Fortunately, my home health care aide here in Mexico surprised me with a new cream known here as Ginatrifil. When I put on, it didn't hurt, which was a big plus for starters,
and it contains betametazone, clotrimazol, and best of all gentamycine which is an antibiotic so I don't get infected hands. I slept well last night.
Good news!!
Big hug!
