Suggest Treatment For Diabetes
i was told i have pre diabetes. I am experiencing nueropathy in my arms and legs. I get hot feelings on my leg at times. I feel hungry even after I v eaten sometimes. I have had some pain in the head, back of head, temples, stiffness of neck, stiffness of fingers, tiredness, what are the different things that could cause this. I have had bell s palsy in the past 2006 and ovarian cancer, which had caused some nueropathy, could that also cause the nueropathy to be worse again.

you can consult your doctor regarding investigating vit b 12 deficiency; nerve conduction studies to assess the grade of neuropathy
there are.multiple drugs available but without knowing cause it would be difficult to intimate on drugs
