Default Seeing a lot of floaters, and taste and smell loss.

I am a 20 year old male and have been diagnosed with a motor/sensory peripheral neuropathy due to autoimmune thyroid disease hashimoto's thyroiditis. I had many many symptoms before but now they all seem much better but i still have these few symptoms which include constatnly seeing floaters during the day, spontaneous shallow breathing at times, taste and smell loss and no appetite during the day. I also have this feeling of pressure between my eyes possibly due to the nerve damage in my nose causing the smell and taste disturbance. Fatigue is another one and muscle weakness and tingling in my forearms/arms.

I wish these remaining symptoms would just heal so i can fully recover and get back to my life.

I am wondering if Benfothiamine could possibly work to heal the rest of my neuropathy. Does anyone know if people have gotten cures with this fat soluble form of Vitamin B1?

Or are their any other alternative treatments that i could try?

I am also curious has anyone else had these appetite and smell/taste disturbances because it really sucks when you cannot smell and taste things that you used to be able to and you feel their is not even a point in cooking anymore due to it.

I have tried and am already using Methylcobalamin, Acetyl L Carnitine, Omega 3's, B1, B2 and other supplements on and off.
