I have a feeling of "ants crawling" in my lower legs and feet almost everyday. i walk an hour daily (even walking) and eat healthy. what gives?

Neuropathy: My question would be do you have a neuropathy from diabetes? Do you have restless leg syndrome. I would consider low magnesium, calcium or potassium as a cause.

Nerves/symptoms: Sensations such as "crawling ants" can be due to impingement/ symptoms of nerves. In some cases of thrombocytopenia (high platelets) as noted on your info, there can be burning sensations of the extremities.
