<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.My husband is a 61 year old, type 2 diabetic who takes insulin shots. He frequently although not every day has long periods of queasy feelings with clammy skin, etc. His doctor told him to check his blood sugar when he was feeling this was to make sure his blood sugar wasnt too low. He has done that and it hasnt been too low e.g., 110. Could this be a side effect of his insulin?  <response>: It could very easily result from a rapid swing in blood sugar levels. More frequent monitoring and keeping a 7-day diary of blood sugars, time of mealsactivitiesstress. You might need a change in insulin. Try to collect some more information to take to your doctor. Are you rotating injection sites? I have found that when symptoms such as yours occur it means the blood sugar is not under control and if you coordinate food, activities and typedose of insulin, these symptoms can be avoided. So, I recommend a7 day blood sugar diary with 6 readingsper day, time of mealsactivities and whenif these problems occurs again in that 7-day period. Then, take it to your doctor and let the doctor make needed changes if any. Have a great day! Kathryn
