What Causes Blurred Vision While Suffering From Diabetes?

Hi, I am a RN. I ve been experiencing blurred vision for two weeks. I ve had a CT, blood work. I had an ischemic stroke 3 yrs ago while at work. I also have Type II Diabetes. I woke up with my teeth clenched this morning and blurred vision. Just now my left occipital area had some pain 5/10. I stood up and had increased pain across the back of my head then tingling down my arms especially my hands. I sat down then ha less but there followed by pain bilat knees? I ve been seen in the ED this week and yesterday at the doc. They are not sure but they want me to see my ophthalmologist. I am concerned about having another stroke. I am widowed, live by myself. I have factor V, past breast ca and my R carotid is 100% blocked. What do you think? Also, my CA 27 and 29 markers are elevated. Scheduled for a echo, lexiscan, bone scan two weeks from now. In addition, ha ha, just found out my O2 sats when sleeping avg 84%. Not good. Are you there?
