Is numbness of the legs (while running) a symptom for diabetes?

Question

I'm a runner and just recently, I've been experiencing a numbing sensation in my right upper leg. I'm getting this sensation while running both on the tread mill and/or outside.

Answer 1

Not necessarily diabetes but definately worth getting checked out. If it were diabetes it would start at the feet. I'd say that it's a joint or nerve or circulation problem. Good idea to go get checked out.

Answer 4

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Answer 5

Chances are pretty slim that it's diabetes. More than likely, you would have other symptoms.

I wouldn't ignore the possibility of sciatica, though. Any pain in the lower back?

Answer 6

If you've been shooting up in that location a lot, then the running will compound the numbness.

Answer 7

Peripheral Neuropathy can occur with diabetes and numerous other disease processes.
