Neuropathy: Hi EternalC, this sounds alot like the beginning of diabetic neuropathy. This is where the nerves that supply sensory information become dysfunctional from high blood sugars. It can be everything from numbness to pain to sensory changes. It is not reversible, but can be delayed or stopped with good blood glucose control. If you have pain, certain meds like gabapentin can be helpful.

Type 2 diabetes: Over the next few months your primary doctor or nurse practitioner should work with you for a few months. Type 2 diabetes can be controlled completely provided you listened to the advice of a doctor and a nurse. Follow advice carefully and you will be very pleased.
