Need warm socks for my cold feet

I have an even more complicated situation. I have small fiber PN, which started with a faulty sense of burning while wearing shoes or other situations with pressure. Now it has advanced to pain and cold feet in anything other than "normal" temperature of around 70 degrees. Even air conditioned air causes this, particularly in a car.
As a result, I have to constantly switch from covering my feet with a blanket, shoes, socks, etc. until they start to burn, then switching to bare feet, then they start to feel extremely cold and painful, then repeat. The "Goldilocks zone" is very narrow.
Anyone else have this experience, and any suggestions for how to deal with it?

I highly recommend socks by "Heat Holders".....I love these and wear them all the time. I purchased several on ebay. Hope this helps you!

My husband has your symptoms. This is what has helped:
Heating pad under feet as soon as coldness in feet start(he s retired so he can do at home)
Lidocaine topical cream
Capsaicin topical cream
BUT what has helped the most in twice a week deep foot massage
Good luck. I know it s unbearable
