I was diagnosed T2 in March. Tingling in feet quickly progressed to pain & numbness below the ankle.
Consulted a neurologist and decided to take Gabapentin, because SSRI's gave horrible side effects.
Since then I progressed to the max dose of Gabapentin, and the neuropathy is now below the knee, and numbness starting in the hands.
The shock news I had from the neurologist today was that there is no credible evidence that tight glycemic control will halt the progression.
Anyone else got simila experiences?
