Type 1 and Type 2

Both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are complicated diseases that often bring their friends along for the ride. You may have met them. High blood pressure, high cholesterol, neuropathy, vision problems, kidney failure, heart failure, and erectile dysfunction are a few of them. Diabetic care and diabetes management are so much more than just the number of your last A1c.

Nerve pain caused by diabetes, known as diabetic peripheral neuropathy, can be severe, persistent, and hard to treat. It affects up to 50% of older type 2 diabetic patients. The progression of diabetic neuropathy can be slowed with the proper treatment. Our goal is to prevent or delay nerve damage. But most importantly, to improve the quality of your life!

What Does Diabetic Pain Feel Like?

Diabetic neuropathy often causes tingling and numbness in your extremities like you feet, toes, hands, and fingers. Other symptoms include a sharp, burning sensation, or aching pain (diabetic nerve pain). Pain is mild at first, but it often becomes worse over time and may spread up your legs or arms.
