Neuropathy Pain Tongue & Feet - Only During The Day

Posted by Bill @zz3l4b, 16 hours ago

I'm a 61 year old male and developed numbness in my toes a couple of years ago. Doctor said I was borderline prediabetic and to lose weight, went from 260 lbs down to 210 lbs. Since then the neuropathy has advanced more into my feet with occasional pain, but also into my mouth and tongue. Note that I have no pain or discomfort at night, but as soon as a wake and begin my morning activities, the pain begins to come. I'm wondering if my symptoms are anxiety related.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks

Have you ever had your spine evaluated? It sounds like compressed nerves somewhere since the numbness comes when exercising. I’d schedule an appointment with a neurosurgeon.

Thanks for your reply.
I should have worded this better, the pain begins once I begin my morning activities.
I did see a Cleveland Clinic neurologist and went through multiple tests which included evaluation of my back/spine. No issues there.
