You need help: Do not find specific meds for diabetes or know what is occurring with your blood glucose measures. Strongly urge you see your doctor, as optimal control of blood sugar, use of nerve pain med such as Lyrica, (pregabalin) and adding medical food called MetanX will help immensely.

Neuropathy area: Normally it goes only as far as the knees and the hands, although sometimes it extends to the elbows and the waist. Instead of glove and stocking, it is more like a panty hose and long glove distribution.
