rude, loud people
My feet and legs trouble me, burning and thrombin especially at night, I'm wondering how others deal with this problem, I've mentioned to Dr and Nurse but they just seem to insinuate it is symptoms of diabetes and nod sympathetically but offer no advice.

Hi my sister is type1 diabetic for 50years now she has same problems hers was diagnosed has being caused by blockages in her legs. Are you seeing a Podiatrist if not I would ask at surgery to be referred and if you get no joy ask for a referral to diabetic nurse at hospital it is a complication of diabetes but it shouldn’t be brushed off or ignored it can lead to other complications.K
