Ans: Sorry to hear that you are having so many complications due to diabetes. Diabetes can cause numbness in the lower limbs due to a condition called diabetic neuropathy, which is a type of nerve damage resulting from high blood sugar levels. However, its progression can be slowed by managing blood sugar levels effectively. Try and remain physically active as far as possible to increase metabolic rates. Follow healthy eating habits like choose carbohydrates wisely, such as those from vegetables, whole grains, and fruits, while avoiding highly refined carbohydrates like white bread, pasta, and sugary foods. High fiber foods can help lower blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity so include lots of vegetables, some low glycemic fruits, oats, etc. Eat at regular times and avoid skipping meals to help regulate blood sugar levels.
