In regard to treatments, I'm hoping I won't need an MGUS treatment strategy for a long time.

In regard to the PN, it stopped progressing when I cut all supplementary B6 out, so that was good. I explored a lot of stuff from the Mayo Clinic blog here, and what's been most helpful symptomatically have been toe socks combined with Vivo Barefoot shoes.

@projfan Yes, I should have been more specific. I hope not ever to have to start blood disorder treatment.
I like the "barefoot" shoes as well. I read an interesting article several years ago about aging and balance. It stated that as one ages, the spacial reference diminishes between the feet and the floor. So the barefoot shoes made sense to me when I saw them advertised.
It took me a long time to get into neurologist as they are in short supply in my community for whatever reason. I tried gabapentin and had tingling in my fingers which was weird but we discontinued that and this neurologist prescribed pregabalin. We'll see how that goes.
Toe socks!. I'm a seasonal sock wearer so when the weather gets cold again I will try that. Thanks!
