One week of heavy lifting and now pins and needles

[Imperial]

I am a Type 1 Insulin Dependent Diabetic

I have just done one week of work. It involved heavy lifting and being on my feet all day.

Since Thursday night I have had pins and needles in my hand and swollen ankles as well as general aches.

I am going to see my GP tomorrow. Is this neuropathy?

hi, im t2 and this isnt meant as advice, when i first started running at the gym i got terrible pins and needles in my hands and feet, i told the trainer this and she said its just the blood flowing more powerfully through parts it normally dosent, no idea if this was true but it did wear off after a month or so, so maybe its that, but definatly ask the quack
