The vitamin D deficiency, and masking by the SSRI, could account for some of it right there.

Sometimes doctors prescribe a megadose type of vitamin D. Before purchasing/taking, find out if it's D2 or D3. D2 is pretty worthless.

d2 vs. d3

Vitamin D and Peripheral Neuropathy:

You can get D3 OTC fairly inexpensively, which should do the job. I take 5000 IU/day.
