Foot pain- is being diabetic related to having a stabbing pain in my feet?

It might: Diabetics can develop neuropathy due to altered function caused by longterm hyperglycemia (elevated blood sugars). See a podiatrist- they can help make this diagnosis, and rule out other causes of pain in the feet.

Possible: If the symptoms are due to diabetic neuropathy, topical capsaicin may be helpful for some, while others may benefit with oral medications. Watch you sugar intake, and have your vitamin b levels checked and supplemented as necessary. Consult with your physician for an appropriate plan of care.
