You could try stabilized R-Lipoic Acid, 100 mg/day. There is much information about it here (use the Search function) and on the web. It has been shown to be effective in relieving the burning pain of PN -- particularly diabetic neuropathy.

r lipoic acid diabetic neuropathy

One caution -- it may also slightly lower blood sugar.
