I experienced this exactly and was told the same thing as you and have not been able to stop the progression with any medical advice, suggestions from any forum, et al. It’s extremely depressing. I’m years in now. I know I’m doomed

Doomed is a strong word but on the other hand I admit I’m not looking forward to a life of deterioration. I’m tired of life frankly. I’m tired of apologizing to my husband for changing his life, for making him a caregiver. I get to the point of “I’ve had a great lif so far, so end it!”

That's kind of what I thought when I was in my 50s when my neuropathy symptoms first started but here I am at 81 and still plugging along, albeit a lot slower and with a lot more effort. I think you just have to take life's journey one day at a time, learn as much as you can about this condition along with what helps which can be a struggle in itself.
