My neurologist also did extensive lab work and 1 important thing was B6 toxicity. So I am not longer taking it. I am also taking Nortripyline. After about 4 weeks I noticed my pain lessening. I have been on 50 mg for 2 months and the pain and burning is almost gone. The only problem still is wearing shoes for more than a couple of hours.

My B6 was high too. The reference range is 2.1 to 21.7. Mine was 30.5. I stopped the multivitamin and fortified yeast, but my symptoms have been worsening. Getting covid on top of it all did not help at all. The burning is now in my neck most of the time.

I have the same problem with shoes. All of mine are now shearling lined, which helps a little. Still, I often walk around in flip flops or barefoot even in what passes for winter in the SF Bay Area, where I live. I don't know what I would do if I hadn't become too old for skiing.
