      It might just be a neuropathy in your foot (it comes and goes with me).  I'd see if your GP would refer you to a podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon.  If the WLE were to cause nerve damage, I would think it would have been a problem from the time of surgery.  But I'm not a doctor.  Take good care.

      Gaby have you considered a plant-based diet?  I recently saw a documentary about in which a large melanoma tumor shrunk away to nothing with the vegan diet and no other treatment.
