Dear Sir/Madam,
The effectiveness of the medicine your mother is taking can be assessed better by the blood sugar values. It would be very nice if you can provide fasting and post prandial values. Also mention the height , weight and age of your mom. If sugars are well controlled then we can confidently say that diabetes is not causing joint pains. But if sugars are high then first the sugars have to be controlled before trying anything else. So get back with the values and we will be able to guide you better
