You may want to consider researching and taking Alpha Lipoic Acid and Acetyl L Carnitine supplements for neuropathy symptoms and nerve health. I started taking them when I learned I had small fiber neuropathy and the burning and pins/needles in my feet improved. I am not diagnosed with diabetes but my mother had type 2 diabetes and I am sensitive to eating too much sugar.

I was diagnosed with Idiopathic SFN 15 years ago, Civilian Doctors were of no help, wasted 12 years on Gabapentin which only made me sleep most of my life away. Forced into retirement I qualified for VA and the Veterans Hospital has been a God send. I can now afford Pregablin that helps so much more than Gabapentin did, I have been using Alpha Lipoic Acid and it adds to relieving sensations. I do suggest trying it. Every Body is different so listen to your body and don't discount prayer it has helped me more than anyone. God Bless

This sounds very similar to me. I have been pre-diabetic (blood tests) for years at 6.0-6.2. I will check with my doctor re Alpha Lipoic Acid and Acetyl L Carnitine to ask if it would be useful/ helpful for me to take. Thank you.
