What does diabetic neuropathy in the feet and toes feel like? does taking prescription metanx help? been type-1 for 30+ years

See a Podiatrist: Typically patients complain of burning pain in feet and toes. Some patients present with no feeling at all. I recommend you find a local podiatrist who has experience caring for diabetics.

Bad: Diabetic neuropathy in feet and toes, usual symptoms include burning, tingling, numbness, and pain. One or a combination of the symptoms may occur. I have had mixed results with metanx which is mainly a Folic Acid on steroids which aids nerve health.

Most common: Symptoms are burning, sharp pains pins and needles =, numbness, tingling, cold or hot. Worse at night. Mentanx is good medication for diabetic neuropathy.

Metanx may help: Depending on the affected nerves, symptoms of diabetic neuropathy can range from a numbness and tingling sensation, possibly a burning sensation, to an uncomfortable painful sensation of the extremities. Get evaluated by a professional to determine the exact cause of the neuropathy in order to get the appropriate treatment.

Variable symptoms: Typical is numbness, tingling, coldness, or burning, and variation of pain. Foot weakness may be present. If you take metformin, might check for b-12 deficiency, in addition. Metanx is fda approved and has been shown to improve nerve fibre density and reduce symptoms, but could take 6-12 months, and best to take twice daily.
