Neuropathy is a side effect of uncontrolled diabetes, where blood sugars are above normal, which causes damage to small nerves resulting in pain.
THere are medications that can help treat this.
However, most critical is that you control your blood sugar levels to as close to normal as possible and ideally below 140 at all times.
What are your current blood sugar levels and A1C level.
