Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have type 2 diabetes since last 35 years and taking medications once in a while suggesting it that your blood sugar levels are not under control.
The problem of burning in the legs is most likely to be due to
peripheral neuropathy (
Neuritis)secondary to diabetes.
Please consult qualified
Diabetologist and get following basic tests done
1)Fasting and Post Prandial blood sugar levels.(Blood sugar levels on empty stomach and two hours after lunch) done to assess the present blood sugar status .
2) HbA1C which indicates blood sugar levels and status of sugar control over a period of last two months.
3) Serum

Please take Methyl Cobalamin along with Vitamin B complex and
Folic acid to get relief from burning in feet. All these medications help to improve
