Poor Circulation and Diabetes

One complication of diabetes is poor circulation in the feet and legs. How can you tell if you have this?

The hallmark sign, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), is pain or cramping in the calf or the thigh (usually the calf) that occurs when you walk a short distance.

This pain is a sign that your muscles aren't getting enough oxygen. If you slow or stop and rest for a few minutes, the oxygen supply usually catches up with the demand and then you can walk a little further before the pain reoccurs. The medical term for this condition is "intermittent claudication."

Other signs of poor circulation can be:
 
•At-rest, nonhealing ulcers

•Absent or weak pulses in the feet or legs

•Decrease in blood pressure in the feet or legs

•Lack of hair growth on the lower legs.

•Blue or purplish color in feet, especially when they're hanging down

•Cold feet

If you think you have poor feet circulation, ask your provider to evaluate it. Poor circulation is caused by a blockage in the arteries that supply blood to the feet. The blockage may need to be removed or bypassed with vascular surgery.

A simple treatment is to walk every day, says the ADA. This exercise can force the blood vessels to expand and improve the circulation in your feet and legs.
Take Action:

Gay man gets out of jury duty by arguing he's a second class citizen
by GoPride / March 11, 2011

New York City -- Jonathan Lovitz, a gay actor in New York City, got out of jury duty by stating he could not be impartial because he's treated like a second-class citizen.

"Just had an intense day at jury duty," he wrote on his Facebook page. "During voir dire we were asked who would not be impartial. I raised my hand and said 'Since I can't get married or adopt a child in the state of New York, I can't possibly be an impartial judge of a citizen when I am considered a second class one in the eyes of this justice system.'"

It worked. Lovitz was excused.

This week, Lovitz appeared on MSNBC's "News Nation" and spoke with anchor Tamron Hall.

"It was such a spur of the moment thing. I was shaking, trembling. It just came out of me so spontaneously," he said. "I never intended to be an activist. I'm just a young gay man who saw some inequality in the state, in the country.

Lovitz might have started a whole new area of gay activism -- on his Facebook page and on a YouTube interview link, several people said they had or will try the same thing.

"We have certain civic responsibilities, like paying our taxes and serving on juries. and I think everyone is obligated to participate," he said on MSNBC. "But when it's your turn to say how you really feel, you need to say how you really feel."

Incidentally, Lovtiz will soon appear on Logo's new reality show, "The Set-up Squad."
"Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."

Important Notice: Our ObamaBiden2008 Group works hand - in - hand with Peckers PICS (Both groups were co-created to work with each-other).  To prevent duplication of articles and questions, all members of this group MUST Join ObamaBiden2008. It is unfair for members that belong to both groups to hear members of just Peckers PICS (only) to make statements when the ObamaBiden2008 has covered such topics in detail.  Therefore, members must join ObamaBiden2008  as of today - as I am going through our member list and removing any member that does not belong to both groups. This shall clear up communications and confusion.  The LGBT cause is too important and beyond 1 person's need to just look at pictures.   Therefore, recommend you join ObamaBiden2008 now.  No you don't have to read every article! But, it covers the LGBT community and includes updates on Health insurance; LGBT boycott list; Westboro Church; and the end of DADT, etc...Also, updates with state gov't war against unions and people with disabilities.  The group is created for you!  There are gay teen suicides going on. There are Hate crimes against gay people.  There are gays who are fired over their sexuality.  There are gay people who died for our cause! You always reserve the right to remove yourself from all my groups.  I have done everything I can and now it is time for you to step up!  If my hard work is unappreciated, than you have the option to leave all my groups now (before you are deleted).  My Groups are for Yahoo members who sincerely care about LGBT rights and Gay Mens Health!   Please Join Now!
