No - you must quit smoking. Smoking can cause neuropathy all by itself. Sorry, been there, done that. The diabetes only agrivated the neuropathy until I quit and got my diabetes under control. I have also found that my sodium intake needed to be lowered drastically because of edema. These three things together did a lot of good for me.
There are days now that I don't even notice the neuropathy, but I still take my gabapentin, just a lower dose. See a Neurologist for an accurate diagnosis and follow his/her instructions.
