You have got diabetic neuropathy. You have to lower blood sugar in order to prevent diabetic neuropathy. The European Federation of Neurological Societies recommends pregabalin as a first line agent for the treatment of pain associated with diabetic neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia, and central neuropathic pain.

Check your FBS and PPBS regularly and keep a record of the same.
