For the neuritic pain in the legs, sugar control is the main issue. These medications are for symptomatic relief till the pain/tingling/burning sensation present in the feet is gone. Sometimes it may be due to metformin tablet taken for the diabetic control or due to vitamin b12 deficiency especially in vegetarians.

Hb1Ac =8 means your blood sugars are not under good control
Diabetes is managed on three parallel guidelines.
1.Diet planning and control in consultation with the dietician
2.Timely and regular use of prescribed medicines
3.Regular brisk morning walk for 45mts for 6 days a week
if any of the three is deviated the blood sugars will increase, so find out the root cause

If diabetes is in control normally other complications are either delayed or of less severity. Since your problem is long standing one, it may not completely go away. Pregabalin is a good drug to help in this condition. But it equally essential to maintain a strict sugar control to get better relief.
