Hi
I recently started getting numbness and tingling sensations under my feet. There is also a great deal of pain around both feet and ankles. I struggle to walk now. And just recently started to get tingling in the right hands fingers I'm type 2 diabetic could this be a related effect of the condition? I'm struggling to get my bloods below 20.

Yes! Please see a doctor.... It's called Diabetic Neuropathy.

Thanks I have done. They have me down for a number of tests. It's just the waiting to get those tests now.

Yes, the waiting seems to take forever. Good luck with the tests!

SPR5858: When you said your bloods were 20, are you referring to your A1C? I experienced the beginning stages of numbness in my left foot when first diagnosed with T2 a few years ago. I changed my nutrition basically to Paleo Nutrition and it went away completely. Google 'Paleo' if your not familiar with the concept. I also had Mortons Neuroma in the same foot. Google that also. Good luck. JD
