Sorry some say it's carpal tunnel.

Yes left hand for me, sometimes it can be very painful for years even now. I don't know but I try to stretch it out, whether it's neuropathy as it's not just feet and my Pregabolin keeps pain down.

Glad I could give some advice after 53 years of insulin usage. Neuropathy can be very painful for alot of diabetics, if worried shout at your health care professional.

Ask to be referred to a diabetic specialist team, I was sent for nerve induction tests which showed neuropathy. Only control can slow it, I've been type one and suffer this since late it's. Pregabolin I found is best.

I can't comment on this but is anyone suffering alarm problems with libre 2 sensor since update to new software upgrades.

I had this problem when they first came into use, this might sound daft but are you placing it in the right area? Even now I sometimes place it incorrectly and it will start up but then fail.

Sorry not got back sooner, I'm on android but no problems. Only problem is sometimes libre app opens my mail or messages, suggest you check for update via Google play.

Anyone had a TIA if so does a low blood sugars start the numbness in your arm or leg as if your stroke has started again.

Lantus glargine can cause a problem like you have experienced, I know I was like that until I went back to animal insulin. Try IDDT website as well as diabetes.co.uk for options and people who have suffered a problem like yours. I've had type1 for forty years come jan. It's not nice when you...

I can say I thought type 2 was classed as age onset diabetes, also steriod induced diabetes, so where does lifestyle come into it? OK there are people whose weight has brought on type2 but not all. This MP has no common sense or knowledge on the matter and should take his single grey cell for a...
