Brief Answer:
About hair loss and sensation of crawling under the skin

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking!

I do not think it is related to Diabetes. I would suggest checking thyroid function, as it is the most common cause of hair loss.

You should check;
-TSH, Ft4, and Ft3.

Is your blood sugar under control with treatment?

It'll be a pleasure to help you further.

Kind regards,
Dr.Mirjeta
