I do not know how old you are, but I know Medicare will pay for you to have diabetic shoes if your doctor sends you to a foot doctor and he says you have to have them.

I found the best is a good pair of running shoes with a good pair of socks not synthetic,preferably wool or cotton depending on your climate

You need to go to a podiatrist and let him help you with your shoes.

What about trying New Balance shoes and try Massaging your feet every night before you go to bed.
