Consult your treating neurologist.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
I have gone through your query.
I can understand your concern.
We can say without doubts that , your symptoms can be attributed to your Diabetic Distal Sensory Large Fiber Polyneuropathy.
I see that you have a perfect control of diabetes.Well done!
Optimizing glycemic control in diabetic polyneuropathy often stabilizes or improves the polyneuropathy.
But in your case the tingling sensation persist and for this reason i suspect that there are even other elements in the basis of your polineuropathy.
In these cases it is recommended to consult one more time your treating neurologist and discuss with him the possible causes and treatements for the persisiting symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
Gabantin or Preganor are usually effective in controlling the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
But it is true that despite these therapies, the symptoms and signs of the peripheral neuropathy remain a chronic problem in most patients.
My advices for you:
-Try to avoid all the trigger factors that provoce or intensifie your symptom.
-Do not drink alcohol because this is this is harmful for you and this can exacerbate or intensifie the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
-Continue the same lifestyle regymen to maintain your good diabetes control.
Hope this is helpful.
If you have other questions,feel free and ask.
Take care.
