[QUOTE="carraway, post: 440837, member: 78843"] Hi I joined this forum when the tingling in my hand was rally bad I had very little sensation in two fingers and I had tingling in my legs especially my thighs, on my face and I generally felt awful. I was in total denial about diabetes and the 7 stones of excess weight I thought I was a healthy fat person as I still exercised ( a bit) and my meals were healthy ( lot of fruit and veg always wholemeal etc, the fact I could eat an entire pot of Ben and Jerrys in front of the TV didn't register, or that after healthy meal I would eat a family bar of chocolate) Reading about low carb and weight loss in this group made sense. So I tried. I've lost weight, my symptoms almost cleared up and I felt great. Then, because I felt so well, I started to fall back into my old habits and I could feel my fingers going back to the way they were. Not as bad but not good. So I'm back in business and I feel pretty confident I can get more recovery with more weight loss and exercise and keeping the carbs low. It helped me. My symptoms (although possibly not as bad as yours) impoved within a month and after two months they had all but gone. Maybe it would work for you. Let me know Cara [/QUOTE]
