Hello,

The Peripheral Neuropathy can occur due to low blood sugar more than high blood sugar. Yes, you have heard the opposite way.

You need to take care of your diet and eat frequent meals. If you are on diabetes medication and because of that low blood sugar, then you need to change medication talking to the doctor because low blood sugar is more dangerous than high blood sugar.

Kindly use vitamin B12 tablets and Neurobion forte drug for a month once daily after food for Peripheral Neuropathy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
