Hello Faiza509,
To say that Diabetes is under control is an unfortunate situation. In fact his sickness has never come under control. To see that blood sugar level has come to normal range is no cure.
Disease has to be understood in a dynamic form which is gradually worsening for the last 18 years or more. Since your fathers disease is becoming worse, he is now developing the complication called Diabetic Neuropathy. The burning sensation is a symptom of that. It will spread from below upwards and then will affect more important nerves like retinal nerves. None of your medicines taken so far has done him any good. So there is no meaning in continuing the drugs.
Homoeopathy considers the patient as a person and treat him. To say that he is sick because he has got Diabetes is wrong. It is only right to say that he is sick and that is why his blood sugar goes high (Diabetes). He can be helped through Homoeopathic treatment after withdrawing all his chemical drugs.
His case has to be taken in detail to suggest the remedy.
Best wishes for an earliest recovery through Homoeopathy

1. condition seems to be pin and needle sensation or glove and stocking type of anesthesia in your father.
2. as he suffered from diabetes,probably he has developed peripheral neuropathy ( diabetic peripheral neuritis), so it is important to control diabetes with plain insulin 2-3 times/day. Oral drugs may bring down blood sugar levels to normal, but neuritis will not respond.
3. side by side You can consult for Panchkarma procedures like:
. shirodhara,takra dhara,abhyang which helps in activating the nerves and increased blood flow.
4. regarding swollen leg, consult with your doctor who might order a Doppler study of the limb.
