I've been dealing with this burning sensation in my hands and feet, and it just seems to zap my energy all day long. Plus, there's this persistent throat pain that won't go away. I find myself getting depressed and angry really quickly. Could all these things be related somehow, and what should I do?

May be related to brachialgia or neuropathy Are you diabetic?

Type 2 Diabetes (Causes, Symptoms and Treatment)

Exact cause is unknown but most appreciated hypothesis is either low insulin or insulin resistance due to genetic +/- environmental factors. Symptoms and signs include increased thirst, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, frequent urination, fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, slow healing wounds, presence of ketones in urine, fruity odour and frequent infections.Treatment is either tablets or insulin to control blood sugar levels along with life style modifications (Diet + exercise).
