Hello,
The pain in toes and fingers in a diabetic patient may be caused by neuropathy. You may need monitor glucose levels keeping them within normal range to reduce it's progression. Also, taking vitamin D for three months may normalize it's levels since you have deficiency. Take Gabapentin or Pregabalin to manage neuropathy.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
