What Causes Tingling In Feet And Tiredness When Having Stage 4 Kidney Failure?
I have stage 4 kidney failure and 46 yrs of type 1 diabetes. I have checked my insulin pump and blood glucose which is 113 last check.Over the last few days I have been real sleepy and every time I stand up I can feel this tingling in my feet all the way to the top of my head it happens about a min after I stand up and then I feel like I m going to pass out if I don t sit. What s going on? I have noticed I m spilling a lot of protein in my urine too an peeing excessively. I usually have to sit for tens just to pee or Cath but not over the last week. Is this an indication my kidneys could be changing? Thank you so much for your YYYY@YYYY
