[QUOTE="anna29, post: 334182, member: 30936"] Hello sparkyrich . Am not sure about the tissue paper ball thing you mention. The other burning/itching/stabbing pain things 'yes' it sounds like chillblains or neuropathic pains Even could/can be both or all of these :thumbdown: I have this ... It is unpleasant and painful , far worse in the colder weather too ! I know what you mean with not being able to tollerate anyone or thing near your feet . They get so sensitive and tender to tollerate this. Have you ever had a diabetic foot screen or checkup? Here at a foot screen/check up they can check all these things you mention out. You are entitled to a yearly foot screen these are usually by GP/diabetic clinic referred. Inbetween make sure you keep your toots warm try some snuggly thermal diabetic friendly socks. Good foot wear is essential - your feet uphold you and carry you about everyday . Never warm your feet up on anything hot like hot water bottles,radiators,top of a hot pipe etc... Numbness and desensitivity of the feet and toes should ALWAYS be reported to your GP asap. Even if you arn't sure - best to play safe . Anna. [/QUOTE]
