Default Idiopathic Neuropathy in Feet and Lower Limbs

Hi there.
My symptoms are burning, stinging feet occasionally up in ankles and lower legs,worse on the right side. Glove and stocking type distribution.
Started approx 10 years ago with numbness in right foot and gradually getting worse. Now very unpleasant.
Mostly sensory with only slight motor weakness. No symptoms in upper body.
Have had many, many blood tests plus MRI scans of whole spinal cord and brain.
Don't eat gluten because get indigestion and hay fever if I do.
Have tried cutting out dairy, tea, coffee, sugar and numerous other things. Not on any medication.
Symptoms would seem to fit in with diabetes but medics insist blood tests show no indication of this.
Medics totally baffled so far.

Any ideas where to go next?
