Can neuropathy in my feet cause balance problems?

My balance is worse if I close my eyes….like, rinsing in the shower I have to grab the bar. It is also off if I turn quickly. So, I try to keep my eyes open and slow down. 🙁

Agree...can't close eyes with bad balance. With numbness and eyes closed, you lose 2 of 3 senses needed for balance. So, I use Johnson's Baby Shampoo...no burning of eyes and I have 2 suction cup grab bars in shower as well. They cost about $20 per and take them with you if your travel.

Then don’t go into a darkened room. You’ll fall down I keep night lights in every room.
