HI !! My mom 73 years old is a Sugar patient and her sugar was always in between 120-160 for last 25 years but recently her sugar has gone up to 250-300 and for last one month she has lost sensation of hot water on her right side of the body. She can hold in her right hand or do normal work and except for being weak whilst walking she is completely normal. Which doctor should i consult and is it Nerve problem??
HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern for your mother has history of diabetes and right now she is having sensation problem, so in my opinion this could be peripheral diabetic neuropathy, you have to first see the good physician who could handle the diabetic cases, then if needed can be seen to neurophysician, hope this information helps you have good day.
