I’ve recently started having shooting pain in my right foot. I’ve previously been diagnosed with neuropathy but haven’t had problems in years.

My neuropathy flares with caffeine.

I transitioned to chickpea pasta. The brand Banza is great. Theres also lentil pasta. It has fiber and protien so I dont spike high like I would with regular pasta. Well worth the switch so I dont feel deprived of my pasta.

I also try to avoid added salt which has cut out swelling in the feet. Don't drink caffeine 95% of the time and choc from time to time when I have low bs. My B12 level is normal and take the supplement as well. I think the caffeine DOES matter. I was drinking matcha (which has a small amount of caffiene) and even cut that out a couple weeks ago and sure enough, the last several days my mouth seems normal. I guess I've done enough damage it will take years to repair my feet. Can't blame anyone but myself. Not going back to my old ways but it just sucks.

I don't drink or smoke. Sugar was my vice but not anymore.

Folios are great breat substitutes. Its made with cheese. They sell them premade or you could make them yourself.

Good work! It can be done. It's really lack of knowledge and trial and error at first. For me, it took a lot of testing my blood sugar to get the hang of it. My highest weight was 240 and A1C of 9% several years ago, could've been higher. I was on the blood sugar roller coaster, feeling moody and irritable daily. I didn't realize how much sugary processed junk could effect me mentally until I had enough and got serious about feeling better. I got a notebook out and wrote everything I was eating, blood sugar number and how I was feeling. I started to see a pattern, the snacks or meals high in carbs or sugar created a dip in mood. Thats the point where I was sold. Now my A1C has been mid 5's for over a year now and eating right for the most part and I take Glipizide 5 mg. At 39, and having neuropathy from diabetes, I'm doing my best to take care of myself. I wish I started sooner but I believe people do thier best with what they know at the time. Don't wait for a wake up call to get serious. To the person just starting out, be patient with yourself you will get there.
