Hello,
I have studied your case and It looks to me that it can be due to neuropthy. There is deficiency of vitamin B 12 and due to raisd sugar nerves are also become weak. That give rise to such symptoms.
I would suggest you to get your blood sugar in control. Also get your serum vitamin B 12 estimation. if there is low level than you need to take tablet Methylcobal one daily for six months.
If there is vibration in other part of the body also than I would suggest you to meet a neurologist and see if there is any other problem.
I hope these stesps will be helpful for you. Let meknow if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
