Hi

I registered today

I have had type 2 diabeties for 15 years and for a year I have cold, tingly, numbish feet. I hate it.

It is nice to find somewhere, where folk talk about what is going wrong with them. It is scary to have things go wrong with me, but it is easier to cope with when I can read about the same health problems happening to others because I feel less alone and less afraid.

I am 50 and am walking very slowely with a walking stick. I really, really hope my Dr is right and the slow walking is just due to soft tissue damage and in a year I will be walking as I used to 3 months ago. I don't mind waiting a year. I just hope I get back to normal and it is not as a result of neuropathy.
