@johnbishop This is truly helpful. I have had numbness and occasional tingling w/o pain in both toes to mid-foot for the past 10 years, which seemed to correlate with when my microscopic colitis began but it is getting worse. Not having diabetes or having had chemo, I blamed in on aging and a crushing injury I had to one of my feet years ago. It was the bilateral nature of the numbness that clued me in. I also have severe osteoporosis. Lots of new surprises in my 7th decade. Aging is not for sissies. Appreciate your wisdom and that of @artscaping . It's a huge offering of kindness and compassion to be helping all of us.
