@steeldove, thank you for your contribution. Do you have any idea why cold feet were more of an evident symptom than painful or numb feet? I have had this diagnosis for four years and I have never had cold feet. It just sort of crept in and stayed a few days ago.

May you have comfort and ease.
Chris

@artscaping Chris, I suspect it's just a matter of when those particular nerves are damaged enough to cause the sensation of cold feet. "Nerve damage, known as neuropathy, can also cause cold feet. In this case, the person senses a cold sensation because the nerves that detect temperature are not working correctly. The feet do not feel cold to the touch, although the person may feel numbness or a pins-and-needles sensation.Sep 16, 2019"
