I am, by no means, an expert. I can only relay what happened in my early, very uncontrolled, life.

My feet did not start to do the weird things until I was in my 30s. I was extremely uncontrolled, and Madelyn has been very well controlled for most of the time of being diabetic. And, she has had the diabetes for such a short time, I somehow doubt the tingling is related. There could be a pinced nerve in her lumbar area, or some other easily explained reason for the tingling.

I found over time that there is usually a place to put pressure (varies with the individual) that alleviates the tingling/pain to some extent.

I know this does not help you nor Madelyn very much, if at all. But, as I said, it is just my two cents worth, but I don’t think it is a diabetic complication setting in yet.

Please let us know what the endo says, and keep us up to date. In the meantime, my family and I will say some prayers for Madelyn.
