It could be nerve compression or some instability in your spine that is causing the toes to tingle.

Could be that your spinal issues have gotten worse as a result of the chiropractor or just because they have gotten worse.

I would stop seeing the chiropractor ASAP and go see a spine specialist for proper diagnosis and set up a treatment plan.

You need to see either an orthopedic surgeon that specializes in spines only or a neurosurgeon that specializes in spines only.

Good luck and let us know what the doctor says

Cnice329,

tingling in your toes could be a sign of type 2 diabetes, but it could also be a sign of other things.

Your glucose level is elevated. What did your doctor tell you about it?

I would suggest that you discuss both the elevated glucose level and yoru tingling toes with your primary doctor.
