saifstu nice to hear the word that you love ur mom . abt the weight one of the problem with insulin is weight gain. after menopause usually ppl become a bit fat too.. for the pain in hand better have physio therapy it may be a frozen shoulder .. she may be ok . if possible a reduction in insulin and addition of tablets like metformin may help her to control wt gain,, anyhow she is 58 so age factor we can do nothing,
all the best . keep in touch . my wishes for your mothers recovery\
