Due to high blood sugar levels (at any point of time 300 except in fasting and 200 in fasting), I am suffering from pain in calf muscle, severe foot burning and tremendous weakness in thigh muscles and forearms. I need a good and honest advice to cure the above problems.

If your high blood sugar could not be controlled by oral hypoglycemic agents (anti-diabetic medication), then adopt / change to insulin therapy. Due to high blood sugar peripheral blood vessels will be damaged by atherosclerosis. Poor blood circulation causes death of nerve cells causing diabetic neuropathy. There is cure for this condition but further deterioration can be prevented. Controlling high blood sugar by diet, exercise and anti-diabetic medication is the only solution to solve the problem. Pregabalin is used to relieve neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves) that can occur in your arms, hands, fingers, legs, feet, or toes if you have diabetes

You are actually suffering from Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy.I have been a diabetic patient for the past 12 years.I was having this burning sensation in my foot for the past 5 years 24/7.No doctor could help me out.This year in january i was referred to DR.Sanjay Khare in navi mumbai.My sugar levels for the past 12 years has always been 400/500 levels.Under his treatment,it has been fully cured and my sugar levels has come down to 89/93 now.I am really thankful to him and he is also very happy that i have come upto his expectation.Infact he had taken a challenge to fully cure me of this problem.I had been to him yesterday only for my check up.You can also contact me on my mobile no.09819178317.
