It couldn't hurt to ask again in a different/new thread, for folks who've skipped this one.

Some of those symptoms sound consistent with PN, but some sound comorbid as well. The numbness/tingling/burning is typical of PN, but some of the other stuff on your toes sounds like it could be some kind of deficiency maybe even fungal, but the podiatrist should have recognized or eliminated those right off.

Has anyone tested you for diabetes (glucose tolerance)?
