Numb right side of left thigh

Afternoon everyone

In the last week I have noticed that I have no sensation and numbness when I touch the right side of my left thigh

I have T2 and my blood sugar level was 69 on my last test and I had an annual medical to check for circulation etc only 6 weeks ago which was fine

I'm worried now what this is and if it's related to my diabetes

Thx

Outer front side?
Are you overweight?
Have a look into meralgia paresthetica. It's not diabetic nerve damage related if it's that, but it is very annoying. Happens to me when I walk or stand, and sometimes when I sleep on my back. Thankfully it doesn't hurt for me, it just goes numb.

Diabetic nerve damage usually start at the very end of your body, feet and sometimes hands.
