Have you ever seen an orthopedic doctor for your hand? Just wondering if it might be carpal tunnel which is one of my conditions. Also, the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a list of complementary and alternative treatments you might find helpful for the neuropathy in your feet - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf

Hello group- the pain and tingling in both hands preceded my PMR diagnosis but I am sure the symptoms were part of PMR... While waiting for help from the the rheumatologist, I ended up with carpal tunnel surgery and have never had the painful or debilitating condition in my hands again... I am on low dose prednisone and methotrexate at this time, as other symptoms are still bothering me from the PMR- hope this helps
