Type II diabetes symptoms?
I was just diagnosed with type II diabetes. I started with gestational diabetes and it didn’t go away, so the doctor said I am Type II, which some doctors call borderline, but others just classify into Type II. Well, my glucose in the mornings (fasting) are from 102-112 every day. Two hours after meals is usually 128-144, depending on what I eat (I am on a diabetic diet).I am not very hungry most of the time, not very thirsty, not losing weight (I am not overweight either, just average). The problem is that I feel this strange sensation on my feet, sometimes on my toes, sometimes on my heels. I feel like tingling or burning, is not that bad, but the sensation is there and I wonder if this is a symptom of diabetes even if my glucose are not really high and I was just diagnosed, so is not like I had diabetes for a long time because my previous A1c tests were fine. Has anyone felt these type of things in the feet? I don’t know if it’s getting worse because it’s cold,but I have the heater on and also wear two pairs of socks and I even apply moisturizer. Any comments or advice? Thanks
