Hello, My name is Vikki, I am 47 yrs old. I have had diabetes since I was 18. I was Insulin dependent, for 12 years now, I have benn on Metaformin 500mg. 12 years ago, before I got pregnant with my son, I was diagnosed with Neuropathic. I was taken Neurotin. Well after, I got pregnant, i stopped taken it. I have not had a problem since. A week ago, I started getting a pain on my left side of leg., no pain medicine helps. Do you think it is neuropathy? I went to the ER and had a test for blood cloths and it was negative.
