HOMEOPATHY IN DIABETES MELLITUSDiabetes
as we all know is an abnormal increase in the blood sugar levels. Any
person complaining of excessive thirst, excessive hunger, excessive
urination, weakness, giddiness, recurrent skin complains, numbness of
hands & feet needs to be investigated to rule out diabetes. Besides,
everybody above 35-40 years of age & those with a strong family
history of diabetes need to be investigated once in a year to
rule out diabetes. An increase in the fasting blood sugar levels
above 120 mg & that of post-lunch levels above 140 mg calls for
attention. However levels below
160 mg can be usually brought under control with
diet control & exercise. Levels above these usually require
medication along with diet control & exercise.Uncontrolled
diabetes in the long run could cause a lot of complications to
many organs like heart, brain, kidneys, eyes besides tingling &
numbness of hands & feet with decreased sensations. All patients
of diabetes must check their sugar levels every 3 months besides glycosylated
hemoglobin once a year. Medication could be in the form of oral
tablets or insulin injections in people whom the levels cannot be controlled
with oral tablets. Diet chart is prepared differently for each individual
patient & it is important to follow
it strictly. Homeopathic medicines can be started if the levels
are below 200mg. However for higher levels
it is advisable to start a combination of allopathic & homeopathic
medicines & then taper the dose of allopathic tablets as
the levels decrease.
