I have found that since my dad has been diagnosed about 2 yrs ago, that he flips out and screams and has these uncontrollable mood swings...He has type I i belive, which ever one doesn't need insulin. He just started soemthing called biata *sp* to help him control the glucose or soemthing and loose weight..


Anybody else have this happen to them? Thanks..

To answer your questions...Your dad probably, most likely has type 2 diabetes. I am also type 2 diabetic and have been for the last 2 years. I take two medications for mine, metformin and glipizide. I find that when my blood sugar gets to high or to low, I have the same symptoms. I get extremely irritable as well as hot/sweaty, kind of dizzy, etc. Your dad may need to have his meds adjusted?! Good luck to you and him!
