    I am terrified. Any help much appreciated

    Don't be too worried, I use to have itching sore and sometimes numb feet but the Dr and exercise turned it around. Not being a 'gym bunny' made exercise a chore but nothing compared to the foot stuff that has gone (also a bit of my tummy).

    Are you Diabetic or diabetic? Work with me on this one...!
