Default I am not sure what I have

I found out a year ago I am diabetic. I found out because of numbness in my feet, which continues today. Since then I started exercising, and eating correctly. I have lost over 70lbs from 240lbs to 170lbs and am now in the best shape of my life. I am down to taking one metformin per day and my blood sugar levels are now normal. Everything else is good as well.
I have had back problems my whole life and I tried a new exercise at the gym yesterday that requires you to sit on your knees and twist lifting 100lbs when you twist at the waist. This caused immediate tingling in my feet when I did this. Now I am wondering if I have neuropathy or it could be a pinched nerve?
Would twisting at the waist cause extreme tingling in your feet with neuropathy?
