Hi there, myself I have been diagnosed pre diabetic and have been tested for neuropathy, this happened about 4 months ago, I suffer with numbness in my left foot and partly my right and was getting these horrible shooting pains from time to time, I hate to suggest meds to you as I know a lot of people don’t like to take them but I started to take a drug called Gabapentin, must say this has helped quite a bit, I have also purchased diabetic socks, excellent and my shoes on the advice of a podiatrist are brand name roka, these or brooks, in store I talked with staff and they were very helpful getting me the pair to suit my needs, I hope this helps you 😊
