Numbness in feet

My feet feel numb all the time. I talked to my local doctor and they said that it's because of my diabetes. But the cures that they suggested weren't as effective. I want a fool-proof cure for this problem. Whenever I lie down or stop my movements, I feel like my legs have been cut off, that's how numb and swollen they are. And when I move, my feet just hurt so much to walk that even little movements become a tough task. What do I do?
