[|Human|] I am a type2 diabetic.I have copd,left bundle branch block,irregular heartrate,and other issues.I get an allergy shot at every season change.This time I got my shot on Nov 3rd 2011.My arm is still sore bigtime.Also my stomach has been upset for a month and I have lost 12lbs.I like the weight loss but wonder about any underlying problem.I did call my doctors office about the sore arm and they said that because I am diabetic it would take longer for me to heal.And I totally understand that but it has been a month.I am 57yrs young and well past the child bearing days so I know that is not the problem.I had a hysterectomy in 1994.Also had gall bladder surgery in 2007. Should I be concerned or just let things run its course.Help
[|AI|]  Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to the allergy shot. I agree with your doctor about the fact that I. diabetic patients the healing process is slower. So, I suggest to use anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the soreness. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
