Is Feet Pain Associated With Diabetic Neuropathy?

I m wondering if there is a neurological condition that causes memory issues, listening fully to conversations, twisting a harmless sentence about ie the weather and think they are being attacked verbally as well as feet pain like diabetic neuropathy? My sister is exhibiting these symptoms

Dear patient
Diabetic neuropathy is due to micro vascular ischaemia and affects both hands and feet in glove and stocking pattern. Means distal end of extremities are involved like hand and feet. Involvement is usually bilateral and symmetrical.Diabetic neuropathy usually happens in long standing disease and occurs early in uncontrolled disease. Memory issues are rare with diabetic neuropathy.
