A member asked:

What does it mean when you have clammy hands and feet you have diabetes?

Specializes in Podiatry

Sweat soles: No it does not mean you have diabetes. It means your anxiety level may be high to cause your sweat glands to produce more sweat. It's typically a hormone caused issue with no concerns.
