G'day Lara & Thank You for the various links to follow-up

You are 'on the ball' in that I was found to be Type2 diabetic last year tho' I'm slim, low body fat & very fit. This was found by the neurologist trying to discover the cause of the numbness; it was the only test, of many, that gave a 'positive' response, however, neurologist ruled-out Diabetes as the cause. Diagnosis of diabetes did cause me to question so-called expert advice as I was told my diet was really good. After some research I decided to try a 'low carb' diet - will find-out soon how well this is/isn't working

As I know so little about P.N. is diabetes a cause of numbness without pain?

P.S. I was almost an Aussie! My parents thought very seriously about moving there or NZ when I was very young
