I've had diabetes since 2006 and currently take multiple medications. I feel tired and ache in the evening. What should I do? (ppbs 125, fbs 140)
Even though your blood sugar is reasonably controlled (FBS 140, PPBS 125), feeling tired and achy in the evenings could be due to diabetes-related fatigue, medication side effects, or other conditions like low iron, thyroid issues, or vitamin deficiencies. You should discuss these symptoms with your doctor, who may check blood counts, thyroid, kidney, and vitamin levels, and review your medications. Regular exercise, balanced meals, and adequate rest can also help improve energy levels.
