Hi folks, sorry to have taken so long (been away on holiday), but my results are back and thankfully my AC1 levels are normal, so no diabetes thankfully, though it's been a huge wakeup call for me that's for sure. No conclusive results as to why I got peripheral neuropathy, all tests came back...

You're not wrong, the fear of permanent nerve damage possibly spreading to my fingers is awful. I just hope I get the results and hopefully treatment before I go away on holiday. I've not taken the vitamin b12 supplements (bar 1) as one of the tests is for B12.

Hi folks, I'm 47 and have had tingly feet off and on for about the last 3 weeks, with the problem getting more pronouced this week. Thought I heard years ago that this was one of the first symptoms. Saw a doctor the other day, he's lined up some tests, but not for over a week. Since then...
