Try from Amazon both Doublewood PQQ and a CoQ10 with breakfast. These have stopped most of my PN progression as well as 80% of any chest discomfort.
You have to stand, walk, stationary bike whatever you can do to get the blood moving in your legs. Leg press w weights at the gym really helps me as well.
Also make sure your gym shoes are less than 6 months old.
Also stay away from electrolytes like Gatorade- I’ve found I’m very sensitive as it increases neuropathy for me.
Let me know if that helps. I am thinking of starting a self help group for PN.

Thank you for replying to my post. Unfortunately my feet are both dropped and the neuropathy in them makes it impossible for me to ever walk again. My dropped feet have been called paralyzed by two different podiatrists. As for CoQ10, I have been taking it for years with my cholesterol drug. It helps the muscle cramps that occur when using a cholesterol drug. I know exercise is good for neuropathy but my inability to walk or stand alone makes it difficult for me. I use elastic bands from time to time but I’m not consistent with it because I tire out so easily. I walk as much as I can with my walker but my arms ache so much when I use it and it’s just too much for me. I continue to put my best foot forward everyday with this illness and to hope a cure will be found soon to help us all with this debilitating condition.
