I have had the numbness for 3 years. That also progressed slowly. Not sure if you have numbness or are familiar with it, but it's very strange. The numbness is in my feet, stops at the ankles, yet I can feel If someone touches my feet, I can feel the pinprick and vibrating tool that the neurologists use.
Numbness is very subjective term to patients. To some it means total sensory loss and to others it means it just feels numb but without sensory loss. And anything in between.

Do you have trouble feeling or does it just feel numb?
