Hi Thank you for replying I shall look into this,I have had a small amount of relief only for about 2 days and today it is back Grrr.
I get my feet checked every year by a NHS Podiatrist and always wear comfy non elasticated socks and fitted shoes which are more expensive but worth it to stop any injuries on my feet as any sores are slow to heal because of my diabetes. Do a lot of toe wiggling too in the morning to get the circulation going lol. Hope this helps
Hi Eddie,that is what I thought it was at first my shoes,so spent a lot on a new pair from hotters,then the neurologist checked them over and he actually was the one who said about diabetes I had bloods done at here I am,I do the same wiggle my toes every day and also massage,the dn tested my feet with her instrument I am hopeing that when my levels come down it will subside abit also been given venlafaxine the neurologist said it helps.I get my feet checked every year by a NHS Podiatrist and always wear comfy non elasticated socks and fitted shoes which are more expensive but worth it to stop any injuries on my feet as any sores are slow to heal because of my diabetes.

Thanks Dibbles appreciate the info.Poor pup so glad that you took him in he must give you lots of pleasure.Hi @Snowy12
They're shoes with thick spongy soles that sort of rock from front to back when you walk.
Some people love them some hate them.
There's a lot of health workers like them.
They're also heavy so they have an added advantage of toning up your legs thighs and rear
Which is always a plus.
The main thing is the thick soft soles, which protect
I also have the furry sheepskin boots so I agree with others on that one.
When you buy socks, always check the seams, they can be a problem too. Feel before you buy and make sure there's nothing to aggravate.
Thanks, that's Togo, he is a rescue Alaskan Malamute pup.
He was dumped by a breeder with parvo virus at 6 weeks.
Love him
Either that or there is a foot fetish going on lol.Thanks Beatdise I do hope so not too bad today so managed to get some fresh air.
LOL @Snowy12 I guess whatever takes ones fancy fetish or otherwise. Yes in the morning it was very fine when I went for my walk cum jog. Very fresh too. Thanks for the encouragement. I am VERY hopeful. For you too.
Lol,what you should of said @beatdise that you went for a very fast walk,I know exactly what the walk cum jog is do it all the time well it sounds better doesn't it
.
I ought to explain. Why its walk cum jog. I walk for about 3/4 of a mile, get into the park with a view of Windsor Castle on the horizon. Then I genuinely jog for a 100 metres, walk for 10 to get my breath back, jog again for 100 meters, then walk for 10 metres again then sprint for a 100 metres. Then I walk back all the way home. I have got stronger and breathing has got deeper and better each day. Even though I play 5 a side football every Friday night I never have to sprint more than 10 metres at a time. Walking is different I have seen 70 year old grannies whiz past me in the first weeks LOL. Anyway have a great Xmas. I am glass 3/4 full man myself bordering on self delusion.Lol,what you should of said @beatdise that you went for a very fast walk,I know exactly what the walk cum jog is do it all the time well it sounds better doesn't it
Good for you though on getting out as much as I love Christmas the weather is very droll,but continue we must onwards and upwards even if we get some relieve just for a day or to than hopefully we shall be happy.
Wow yours is so different to mine lol,I am very impressed keep it up it is obviously working for you.Same to you have a great Christmas.
This thread has turned into a bit of a foot fetish lol but it is funny. I used to have a border collie and since she passed away I don't walk as much as I used to and my feet felt better. Any exercise is better than none and I am not a couch potato either lol
Morning Eddie have to agree not sure about others and yourself but I have become obsessed with mine,as I was also deficient in serum folate this can also cause you to have problems with your feet so I would definitely suggest anyone who is having feet problems to get there b12 tested to rule this out.
Ta about the folate defcy symptoms. It can also happen with B12 defcy or too much B6. I was told my feet problems are down to my high HbA1c of 91 mmol/mol and the nerves are affected and so is my circulation. It is stable since being on high doses of insulin anvd have a hospital review this month so hopefully scoring a better HbA1c
Just got back to this thread Snowy and took your advice on B12 and folate levels. Looking at an old lab report I saw the following:
