--although you'd want one who specializes in neuromuscular disorders as opposed to one who works primarily with stroke or headache patients or one who deals with multiple sclerosis, etc., Not all neurologists are that familiar with peripheral nerve issues.

By the way, people with glucose tolerance issues, even before frank diabetes, are now ell known to often exhibit symptoms of neuropathy, and it seems they are also more prone to compressive nerve symptomology--the "double crush hypothesis" if often used to explain how a nerve tract that is not functioning as well due to a metabolic, toxic, or autoimmune issue may, when compressed, produce symptoms beyond the expected sum of the insults. This has been more often documented in people with diabetes/glucose dysregulation having spinal compression problems than more peripherally located compressive issues, but has certainly been documented in those areas as well, especially in those areas that nerves pass through narrow channels and are prone to compression anyway, such as the carpal and cupital tunnels, the knee, the pubic Alcock's canal, and the elbow.
