Why There Is Tingling Sensation At The Tips Of My Fingers?
I have type 2 diabetes and am 58 years old. I am on medication with 2 pills, metformin, glicazide and lantus insulin. For the past two weeks I have been experiencing tingling sensation at the tips of my fingers mostly at night but also during the day. I don't exercise due to a frozen right shoulder. Is this something that I should consult my doctor about?

Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic,
Tingling sensation in the finger tips may conclude the possibility of Neuropathy symptoms, better consult your family physician to check for blood sugar levels whether its in control.
In my clinic patients who come with such syptoms i prescribe gabapentin &Methyl cobalamin combination at night.
