I had severe numbness in my feet and hands when I was hypothyroid. It took about a year to resolve once I was on the levothyroxine.
You might want to get your B12 tested as well as Vit D.
If you are below 400 in B12 level, fixing that with methylcobalamin (active form) will help your peripheral nerves further. Vit D also is being found to be low in most Americans. So get that test, and your goal should be 50-70 US range.
Doctors will test you, but tend to misreport the results and to treat poorly. I have collected the newer medical data for you to read and follow. Both supplements are over the counter so you can do them yourself, after you get your testing results.

Vit D:

Guidelines in US for patients 50 and over is to take a quality B12 supplement daily. The low Vit D is being found in about 70% of Americans who do not live in the southern latitudes.
