Have you had your B vitamin levels checked? In the process and found out my thiamine was low and folic acid and B6 are quite elevated. Apparently these vitamins have a lot to due with neuropathy symptoms.

I've had nephropathy for a few years I was taking B12 sublingual 5,000mcg for years had numbness in feet gradually up to my hips. Then had my doctor test me for B vitamins and they were high both B6 and B12 so after getting a DNA test they said I lack the enzyme needed to process B vitamins after I started taking L-Folate the metabolically processed Folate that converts the B vitamins in the body and stopped taking the high dose of B12 I'm feeling better less numbness but still there but the skin peeling on my hands went away so that and other things were caused by B12 toxicity which has the same symptoms as low B12 which was why I was taking the B12 but I guess without the enzyme it won't process in the stomach go figure.

Yes, mine is autoimmune. I tested 13 for RA but you have to test at or above 14. Really one point off.
They believe it’s RA. The doctor in Boston thinks lupus or sjogerns. I am not diabetic. My hypothyroidism started way after diagnosed with neuropathy.
