hi everyone and hope you are all well. i know i havent been on the forum for such a long time but i realy need your advice .
i have neuopathy in both my feet which is being controled with meds but just before christmas my fingers started to get a numb tinging feeling and now it seems to be traveling up my arms and across my back i can also feel a sensation in my neck and face. what i need to know is could this be neuopathy speading and can it spread even though my levels are not to bad. please any advice would be very greatful. also i have b12 defecancy which also caused the neuopathy in my feet. i didnt think it could spread if my levels are ok.

Hi Tracey, very sorry to hear this :( I hope you can get the appointment and the GP is able to reassure you and find a treatment that helps. It may be unrelated to your diabetes, so best to try and get to the bottom of things. Big {{{{hugs}}}} Let us know how things go.
