Yes,,,,,,,,
For me keeping my feet cool, helps (sleeping with one foot-leg out of the blankets seems to do the trick for me)..
At work I can't do that so I'm searching for some kind of cooling shoe inserts.
So summer months are the worst for me....Hot baths also
I tried all the RX stuff by the time it worked somewhat it made me dizzy..goofy so I quit it
I'm not diabetic but sugar/Chocolate seems to set it off also Alcohol...Dang! lol
I'm trying Metformin because it help regulate your glucose...The verdict is still out on this since I just started it..
The list:
B Vitamins
R-ALA
Acetyl-Carnitine
N-acetyl-cysteine
Curcumin
Fish Oil (Omega"s) I use Krill Oil
This is the list from the Mayo Clinic for what helps..

I’m a 78 year old type 2 diabetic on Metformin only and also am triggered with tingling, burning and sometimes numbness in my feet. Chocolate, and spicy foods seem to elevate symptoms for me as well. I only use pure stevia minimally, gave up sugar long ago. From the list of supplements I take sublingual B12 methylcobalamin , Magnesium Glysinate, Omega 3 Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil and follow Mediterranean diet. What helped the most however was adding R-ALA 3 months ago. I also wear low pressure bamboo compression socks which helps with my varicose veins.
