Hello,
In my opinion, in your case, peripheral neuropathy should be considered.
It is a condition that is characterized by damage to peripheral nerves from diabetes.
Discuss with a Neurologist for these issues.
If confirmed then correct control of sugar levels in blood and treatment with antineuralgics + vitamin B complex supplements may be necessary.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
