Hello, thanks for the query. Usually in a person with long standing diabetes mellitus, symptoms of periphera; neiropathy develop. The condition is seen in most of the diabetes patients, particularly it is worse in those who had a badly controlled blood glucose levels and high hba1c%. If diabetes is controlled well right from beginning then the severity is quite less. However, if the control is persistently bad then severity of symptoms more. Therefore, apart from achieving a very strict glucose control, various medications that are mentioned need to be taken. Since you have both sensory and motor effects it is a difficult situation. You will have to continue the medications and hope it will improve. Thanks.
