Hello, I wonder if anyone can help me.
I never usually have problems with cold feet, in fact I have been used to wearing socks or just barefoot even around the house in the middle of winter for years. However, I'm now getting really cold feet for no apparent reason, I've noticed this over the past week or so. Yes I know it's cold right now but as I say I never normally have this problem. What's changed? well since mid September I've been low carbing and exercising regularly, running 3 times a week (just for 15 mins) and walking an 45 minutes to an hour every night. I've lost 3 stone as of last week, so it's going well but I'm worried about nerve damage (been diabetic for 5 years). I'm on one metformin a day.
Any advice would be great, I'm due a diabetic foot review in April. I don't really have any symptoms of peripheral neuropathy as far as I can figure out, I can feel both pulses in each foot and appear to have lots of sensitivity.
Thanks,
Neil.
