The last five days I have been having this weird sensation in my arms and feet. It's like tingling, like having something crawling under my skin.

The only things that have changed in the last few days is that I started victoza. I am still on the starter dose. Also I have started controlling my carb intake and using the vibro plate again.

Could any of these be causing the tingling. It is annoying but also worrying :(

Thanks
Claudette

Tell your doctor or diabetic nurse about what you are experiencing as they could be signs of peripheral neuropathy. I have the same symptoms and I have to go for further tests next week.

Anyone has any more thoughts. So far I have not really had any other classic victoza side effects

Could be something to do with the vibration plate, most diabetics are advised not to use them,

I would get your B12 levels checked. Metformin can cause malabsorption issues and a deficiency in B12 can cause neuropathy symptoms.
