What Causes Numbness In Toes And Legs Despite Taking Amitriptyline?

My feet feel like they are vibrating today. For 2 months I have also been complaining about craps and numbness in my toes and legs. I was told neuropathy and given amitripthline for it . This only helps a little. Should I be going to some specialist and which one? I already went to a neurologist.
