[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2674983, member: 517579"] Hi NTEBONG and welcome I have no experience of diabetic medication, and if you want to change or adjyst the medication you're currently taking I'd advise talking to your doctor. I did have neuropathy as yuou describe - hotness, burning feet, pains in feetthat sort of thing. I had these for about five or six years. What worked for me was lowering my blood glucose. Those symptoms had started when my BG was around 44/45 mmol/mol (HbA1c test). Reducing my A1c to 36 made them (mainly) go away, although I still have a slight tingle that's probably permanent damage. I reduced my BG by doing a very low carb diet - around 20g carbs per day. I'm still doing that and I'm in my fifth year now. I've not had a diabetic-level BG reading since January 2020. I can't say definitely that what worked for me will work for you - but it might be worth giving it a try. Best of luck, and don't be afraid to ask questions. [/QUOTE]
