Very much appreciate your advice and comments, Lagrange. My pain specialist has yet to learn the underlying cause of the neuropathy even though I've been seeing him for months. He appeared too busy referring me on to three other pain-in-the who couldn't comprehend my pain nor gave me needed advice. I did get a feather stroke down the leg, and was asked if it hurt??

I believe the peripheral neuropathy and CRPS occurred after a revision surgery by an orthopedic surgeon who undoubtedly damaged nerves and tissue from 5th metatarsal along lateral side. This coupled with my 2 autoimmune diseases along with foot arthritis was a disaster in the making. You gave a very helpful comment about a neurologist specializing in neuropathy, and in hindsight, that should have been my first choice. But I had no guidance nor recommendations. I will try the thin socks, epsom salts, and alpha lipoic acid Thanks again for your encouragement.
