Numb toes = peripheral neuropathy?

Posted by Deneb on June 30, 2005, at 0:04:34

I'm scared. My big toes are a little numb from standing around so much at my workplace. I'm short so I have to tippy toe to reach certain things. I think I may have damaged my nerves! This happened to me when I worked at another place a while back, but it went away.
Eeeek...what if I have diabetes or something? What if I permanently damaged my nerves? What if my toes need to be amputated one day?
OMGosh, maybe my nerves cannot detect changes in BP as well and that is why I sometimes lose my vision as I stand up quickly.
Does anyone know anything about this? My internet connection seems to be very slow today and I can't do a full search on this. Please help!
I don't think I have diabetes...my blood glucose was checked when I was in the ambulance...then again my metabolism was all screwed up...aaaahhhh...maybe I'm dying.
