I have swelling numbness pain in my ankles and legs, I was told it was hereditary because I don't have diabetes. Thank you so much Viasox for making the perfect socks for me.
Thank you! We have two flagship products, the first is our Non-Binding which stretches up to 30" around the calf (they come in two lengths, Knee High and Crew), while our Compression socks are all one length (Knee High). Although Non-Binding and Compression achieve the same goal which is to promote blood circulation, our Compression sock has a graduated compression of 12-15 mmHg, only stretching up to 18".
Hello Sir.. I have neuropathy as a result of CHEMO for colon cancer. Gabapentin was not a success. i have a loss of feet balance and sensitivity. Any recommendations please??
Last year I began to get a feeling of numbness in my feet, especially in bed. I also sometimes get cramp in the muscles in my calf leg muscles, mainly in bed. Around the same time I began to feel dizzy whilst walking, with an unsteady feeling, like I was going to fall. It has got worse over the months, and I am walking like a drunk. I don't have any pain whilst walking, but I am diabetic and having trouble keeping it under control. I have, for the past 2 years been under a lot of stress looking after my severely disabled Mother, lifting her from one chair to another. I feel that may be a contributing factor. Her Social Worker told me that I would no longer be able to give her the Care that she needs, and she is now in a Nursing Home. I am just so stressed out as she can't even talk now. Can anyone tell me if stress is the cause? or is it a combination of being diabetic and under a lot of stress.
Goto the docs Gary look after yourself. Tell them everything, those are serious symptoms and you may need a brain mri just to make sure nothing dodgy there. and if there is, its better found when its small.
@@clairekosmic Well it has been around a year since I began experiencing these symptoms. But it has gotten worse, and I almost collapsed waiting for a bus, in bitterly cold weather. I wasn't too bad in the summer months, could this be a weather thing. My blood sugar continues to be high, but I am suffering a lot of stress. My Father told me before he died over 10 years ago, that the Liver makes more sugar into the blood stream, when under stress when you are in that "Fight or Flight situation" Could that be the cause?
@@clairekosmic I did injure my head in the kitchen around 18 months ago. I was squatting down to get something in the cupboard below, and had forgot that I had left one of the wall cupboard doors open. When I got up, I caught my head on the corner of the wall cupboard. And to this day, it has not healed. I had a biopsy done on it, but have yet to hear from the Doctor whose team performed the biopsy. I fear it could be a brain tumor as I have a heavy feeling in my head most of the time, especially when I'm walking with an unsteady gait, like I'm about to fall.
If your diabetic type 2 --- Switch to a low carb / keto diet. Talk to your dr. if your taking meds for diabetes, you don't want to go too low and die! This will get your blood glucose under control, and will probably prevent neuropathy from getting worse, and hopefully prevent other diabetes side effects. Sorry, this will probably NOT cure neuropathy you already have. I got my after meal Blood glucose spikes to 120 and my A1C to 4.9, but I still have neuropathy, but its not getting any worse. Don't let it get worse, get your diabetes under control!
