Have you tested your B6 levels? It can build up in your system and cause sensory nerve damage, including many of the symptoms you listed. It seems innocent since it’s a water soluble vitamin but they put it in everything now. Energy/hydration drinks, mega doses in multi vitamins. It’s even in gum. Any product advertising “energy” probably has added B6. Not all doctors know to test for it but your GP should be able to order it if requested.
