Pins and needles

[reskejim]

I am type 2 and on metrormin. I have been having pins and needles in my feet for a few weeks now.
Two nights ago I couldn't sleep because of pins and needles in hands, legs and feet. Could it be related to diabetes?
Thanks

HI AND WELCOME
You can get pins and needles from diabetes, the reason of this is usually nerve damage. But also you can get it if your Vit B12 is low as well, you should report this to your GP or DNS nurse as this is more likely. I have also heard that if you don't have enough salt in the body.
Take care
