Default what is it ?

Hello. I'm new here, and if I do something wrong, let me know.

I'm needing help. I've been to several doctors with mixed dx.
The foot doctor says it's metatarsala.
Another doctor says it's tarsal tunnel.
my GP believes it's diabetic neuropathy.

I have numbness in both feet at the same time, one foot is worse than the other. In addition, the feet are very sensitive. The area in both feet have
grown larger in the past week.

In the last few days it has gotten worse. I have also developed a painfull
lumbar spine.

I've had xray, and the foot dr said metatarsala
I had a nerve conduction test run, and they said tarsal tunnel, and
no diabetic neuo damage
my gp says it's diabetes, due to high blood sugar numbers
I had physical theropy. I quit after a month since I could not affor the
$600 a month cost. They thought it was odd that both feet
and thought it might be higher like in the the spine.

At this point something needs to be done. I contacted the regional
neuro's......both were looking at booking appoints into march april !!

I don't know if I should do a MRI or a nerve conduction test from the spine
down, the other was knee down.
The GP is annoyed with dealing with it.

what to do and what is it ????

thank you !
