Please don’t take for granted that you do not have Diabetes. For many yrs my glucose levels from my yearly blood work was normal. I had noticed that every Saturday after hip going to lunch and lots of walking that my feet and legs would itch and sting horribly in the evenings. Then my toes started yo go numb. My Do tor said my glucose was normal still. I continued that way for a few years. Then I felt like I was dragging myself across the parking lot into my place of work every day. I just felt soooo tired. She then decided to to another blood test and my glucose has raised up but not dangerously. She put me on Metformin meds and I continued using the meds until one day I got a rash from a new med I had started and had to go to ER. They found that my A1C blood test which tells them your blood sugars over a 3 month period was and behold 8.8! Which was not good. Big time type 2 I then had to start on on insulin. No one ever told me to stop eating sugars and bad carbs. My feet have gotten worse over time and my chemo treatments didn’t help. Motto: ask doctor to script for an AIC test. I am finally on Glp1 Mo journo for Diabetic and my blood sugar is now down to 6.0. Not excellent but much safer. Good luck!

@dinnamm - Thank you for your comment. Yes, I am not going to rule anything out since this is not getting better. I get flare ups every day, red, blue stinging feet, sore skin... God knows what is going on.
