What Do Feet Tingling Indicate While On Lyrica?
The A1C result is OK!
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question.
Tingling is a symptom of diabetic neuropathy.
Good control of diabetes over time is the key to treating diabetic neuropathy.
There is no cure for neuropathy, but keeping your blood sugar within a target range can reduce symptoms and prevent them from getting worse.
From your recent A1c result, I can deduct that you had a good control on your blood sugar, during the last three months. This is good!
About the tingling symptom, You have already tried two anti-seizure medications (Gabapentin and pregabalin) in maximal doses and still, the tingling exists.
In these circumstances, I'd suggest trying Amitriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressants, that may be helpful for your symptom and Capsaicin cream that is a topical treatment. For this treatment, you may need a prescription.
I'd suggest consulting your treating endocrinologist for the right treatment and the prescription.
Hope this information is helpful. Feel free to ask further.
Take care
