I was diagnosized with type 2 diabetic  in 2004 with a1c 6.5 and my a1c
for 2005(one year later) is about the same level. In order to reduce
a1c, I went on dieting. As result of dieting

1.  I lost 30lbs (normal BMI after weight loss),
2. my lipid profile is normal(used to have triglyceride 355 and it is
108).
3. my a1c is within normal range during past 10 months.
4. my 2hr glucose tolerance test is normal (108 before glucose in the
morning and
                                                               97 two
hours later).

I developed symmetric polyneuropathy symptom nov. 2005 with following
symptoms

1. pins/needle  and numbness all over my body legs,feet, arms, hands,
faces, body.
2. burning sensations on my feet and buttock(especially after sitting).
3. weakness in my hands and foot.
4. weakness in my waist area and I have problem sitting for long with
lean against
  back of the chair and standing for long.
5. dizziness(not because of abnormal blood pressure).

Here are my questions,

1. why my neuropathic symptoms are getting worse, while glycemic
control is getting better,
  if neuropathy is caused by diabetic conditions.

2. Have any one experience weakness in waist area due to diabetic
peripheral neuropathy ?

3. All neuro tests/mri/ct turned out to be negative. My neurologist
tells me it is probably
  caused by prior diabetic condition and endocriologist think there is
something else
  is going on and I am at lost.

thanks a lot lee
