[QUOTE="KathyCP, post: 1670165, member: 424527"] HI Randi B, i was diagnosed with t2 4 years ago, but was told that i must have had it for at least 5 years before that. my feet got progressively colder, and last year they were really painful during the winter - i've only lost about a stone in total (i've never been seriously overweight), but i definitely feel the cold more than i used to - probably a combination of carrying less weight, getting older and having diabetes. but the good news is that, having started a lchf diet about 18 months ago, and also adding a little more salt to my diet, this winter my feet have been much, much better. i stayed overnight at a friend's house on thursday - i'd never stayed there before and the bedroom i was in was freezing. i had on thermal socks and wrapped my feet up in a sweater, but they stayed really cold all night - but they weren't painful in the way that they were last winter when they got cold, so i'm cautiously optimistic that keeping my sugar levels as low and stable as i can is actually having a positive effect on my feet.
