My daughter, age 5 1/2, has Type 1 diabetes. She was diagnosed 1 1/2 years ago. For the past month, she has complained of numbness and tingling in the soles of her feet that comes and goes at various times during the day. I took her to her pediatrician who has ruled out neuropathy. She eats food products containing Nutrasweet (aspartame) on a daily basis and I am wondering if there may be a link between these symptoms and her use of Nutrasweet.
