Im in the same boat except I also have pain in my feet when I walk. Is that something you experience?

@davelobb12, Thank you for responding to both @422 and me. That is an important question. It is a different kind of pain.....whatever the numbness and tingling create. When you add the cold, then it is quite irritating. The other thing you must do is be very careful that you do not fall. Sometimes I have gone to the grocery store and just walked up and down the aisles, hoping to get my feet to calm down.
There are lidocaine patches you can try or you can get a personal ointment created at a compounding pharmacy. These can work well for a few hours depending on the pain elements your clinician
specifies. Have you tried Voltaren? That topical medication has been around for many, many years. Another option is a cannabis balm. You can get them for chronic pain or acute pain.
May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris
