Your first 3 sentences describing your condition are the same as mine, but I also have numbness in my hands.

It has started in my fingertips, too 🙁
I'm trying to figure out what I'll do if it takes all the feelings in my working hands.
I’m taking physical therapy, line dance, walk carefully in the hills. And move like a clutz. I take alpha lipoic acid and b12 among other things. I’m also doing deep tissue massage and acupuncture. Chiropractor didn’t help. Red light therapy didn’t help. Leeches didn’t help. Staying warm is essential or my hands, legs and feet cramp badly.

I've had that as well. Pregabalin helps. Also Alpha Lipoic Acid which is OTC and inexpensive. I bought a big bottle of that on Amazon. Actually at one point last year I was numb/tingling all the way up to my chest and in a wheelchair. So at least in my experience, the situation is fluid and you can get better or worse depending on the level of inflammation you currently have.
