What Causes Vibrating Sensations In Foot & Ankle?

I am a 65 year old healthy diabetic (type 1) and recently had an episode of my foot and ankle feeling like vibrations were coming from the floor up to mid shin. I have some back problems so I took a mild muscle relaxer and the sensation stopped. Is this something I sould be concerned about?

This is called 'Diabetic Neuropathy '. Take Amityrtipline 25 mg once at night along with Prgabalin SR 75mg once daily and keep your sugar level under control.
