[QUOTE="HpprKM, post: 161361, member: 14660"] Cugila, so sorry to hear about your pain from spinal damage, however, as far as I know I have never suffered any spinal damage, or real back problems previously and thankfully. However, look through some of the replies to this message I felt that I never really introduced the subject of Proximal neuropathy, but feel sure it is mentioned on the site somewhere, though cannot locate right now. However, I am adding this link [url]http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/neuropathies/[/url], if you select the 'types of neuropathy' link and scroll down to the heading 'neuropathy affects nerves of the body' you will see 'Proximal neuropathy affects': [list]thighs hips buttocks legs [/list] further descriptions match the symptoms I experience precisely. It is just that some of the posts are suggesting what other causes may be, whilst that is appreciated and taken into consideration, I get the feeling that they may not realise that it can be an actual diabetic side effect, particularly in T2s and I have the feeling that many people are unaware of this. So, yes, it can be a diabetic symptom caused by nerve damage. Must add, that I do not wish to detract from other people's knowledge, and certainly not implying that the members who responded are not in possession of this knowledge, as I know [b]many members are far more knowledgeable than I on diabetic 'fall out',[/b] but just wanted to put the record straight from the point of view of my original post :wink: [/QUOTE]
