So I'm sitting here reading other threads, and thinking how easy it is to panic yourself, because I have.
No disrespect to anyone, because we're all here because we are diabetic, but we're good at controlling it
We are the best of the rest.
No one here is ignoring what they have, and we all want the best for each other.
No ignoring it, some confusion, maybe, because it wasn't expected.
But it’s how to cope that matters.
But back to the point of the post.
I have had an ‘odd’ sensation in my left foot, in fact in my toes.
So, a bit of panic.
Neuropathology.
I’m diabetic, so it follows on.
But I’m reguarly tested. I’m prodded, I’m poked, I’m passed as clear on everything.
Today, in the car, I’m stuck in traffic.
My foot hurts.
I’m driving for miles, one car moves, I move one car length,
Clutch up, clutch down.
I realise.
I’m pressing the clutch down, using just the toes on my left foot,
Not the ball of my foot. Just the toes.
No wonder my toes hurt.
It’s a bl**dy heavy clutch, and my toes have been doing all the work.
And my toes hurt!
Then I used the ball of my foot after that, and it’s better tonight.
So, the point?
In my case, look for the normal problems, rather than look for the diabetes related ones.
You may find it’s better than you hoped for!
