Have you had any surgery in the locale of the neuropathy?
I had hammertoe toe surgery and when the bandages came off I had terrible tingling in an adjacent area. I’ve had the EMG and have been told I do not have neuropathy and that podiatrist told me it was coming from my back. I never believed him.
I know his surgery did something to a nearby nerve to cause the sensation of tingling and numbness.

@caroljeand How long ago was the surgery? I had foot surgery decades ago and the surgeon did disturb the nerves in the area. It took about 15 months for it to calm down. He suggested I take B12 supplements since your nerves use B12 for healing. Careful about B Complex because not all the B vitamins are water soluble like B12.
I also had similar problems following hand surgery. Just a lot of nerves in hands and feet.
