Numbness in foot fingers
My mother is type 2 diabetic from 22yrs and on medication for several other problems too. She takes 3 times insulin and a tablet in the afternoon for diabetic. She has Osteoporosis, Rhumetoid Arthritis, block in both legs, Angioplasty done in April 2021( stent in both left and right arteries), Blood Pressure, Cholestrol and also medication from Nephrology. Recently ( 2 weeks) mom started with homeopathy medicine for Arthritis, Osteoporosis and Peripheral Neuropathy as she was having lot of medicines in a day with anxiety problem. 6 days back mom got a stomach pain with bloating which was treated by allopathy medicine but also started with a new problem of numbness of foot fingers which is still there even after getting better with stomach issue. I would like to know whether i should consult a neurologist or talk to the homeopathy doctor? Mom used to take Gabapantin Nt 400/100 too which was stopped. What should i do? Is it a matter to worry or its a effect of stomach issue she had?
