Driving making neuropathy of the feet worse

My feet can go numb when driving. Shifting my butt left and right helps a bit, so my guess is something about how I sit is cutting off something. This numbness goes away pretty quickly when I am out of the car. But I had this issue long before I had neuropathy in my feet so I am not sure it is related.

I am in the same boat as you with the feet and having them go numb when driving. At stop lights, I put the car in park, and tap ( briskly) my foot on the floor...and it actually helps the circulation. I live in PA, so I KNOW in the WINTER this is ten times worse. I have a garage, but an old car that I cannot "start" remotely. That would help. Anyone have any good ideas on this?
