Severe numbness in hands from neuropathy

Afraid I have no answers but I suffer the same numbness in both hands and both feet. I use physical therapy for strengthening and it has helped with mobility issues though hand numbness seems harder to deal with. Last night I had trouble eating salad with a fork! Thankfully no pain for me. Diagnosed with MGUS and D.A.D.S. after 14 months of tests. Recently began IVIG therapy. Going to request cervical spine MRI to rule out issues as I have been having a lot of neck discomfort and headaches almost daily.

To as143 Thank you for your reply. It is nice to know I am not alone. People see my hands and my using them and they think they are perfectly fine. They are so far from this. I have trouble picking up my pills with them so I have to improvise when doing so many things. For example, when taking my pills, especially the tiny ones. I simply lick the top of the finger next to the thumb to pick them up. I would like to get an MRI of my back but I have a pacemaker so I can’t get it done. Please keep in touch and tell me if any of the things you are doing makes a difference. I hope you find the answer to this problem. Have a great week and all the best.
