General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I have gone through your query. It may be due to Diabetic Neuropathy.

For that you may require fasting and postprandial sugar levels, vit b 12 level after physician consultation.

Take anti diabetic medications as adviced.

Strictly follow diabetic diet and do regular exercise.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
