I only have high insulin (normal/low blood sugar) and my feet are all tingly...wondering if this is neuropathy and unclear what the qualifiers are for this diagnosis.

YES, AND THE LONGER YOU HAVE NEUROPATHY THE WORST IT GETS , YOUR FEET WILL BURN LIKE FIRE AND YOU LOOK FOR COOLER PLACES ON YOUR SHEET , IT FEELS LIKE PINS & NEEDLES ARE HITTING YOU FROM THE INSIDE OUT, AND IF YOU DON'T FOLLOW YOU DR'S. ADVICE THE NEUROPATHY WILL GO UP YOUR BODY & GET IN YOUR HANDS. I TAKE NEURONTIN 2400MG A DAY, IT HELPS BUT ITS STILL BAD, NO BODY KNOWS THE PAIN OF NEUROPATHY UNTILL THEY HAVE IT. AT NIGHT I WOULD CRY IF I THOUGHT IT WOULD DO ANY GOOD.

The side effects of diabetes occur even in the best controlled patients unfortunately. Diabetic neuropathy is usually a numbness in the lower extremities with loss of sensation.

High sugar. If you don't control your diabetes, it can lead to peripheral neuropathy, blindness and other horrors.

High insulin levels usually indicate diabetes or prediabetes. So you can have neurpathy form that.
There could be other reasons for neuroapthy- impinged nerve, herniated disc, etc.

neuropathy most commonly caused by the damage done to nerves by diabetes, can be caused by almost any imbalance in the body.

High blood sugar over a long time causes it.
