Losing Muscle Mass
A DiabetesTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am losing muscle mass very quickly, what causes this? It's really not flattering at all. Besides exercises, which I'm paying gym for nothing as I don't get time to go there.
What else can I do to gain back muscles or atleast meat under my skin?

@A DiabetesTeam Member I'm not sure that a lack of working out causes rapid muscle loss. Why do you believe that is the reason? It's probably best to rule out other, sometimes serious causes with a doc. Good luck
