I’m a 75 yo lady with PN and balanci issues are a major problem as well as fear of falling. I use a cane, walkers and transport chair for long distance as I have muscle atrophy and weakness from CIDP, like MS of the PN system. You might really benefit from PT, as they do a lot of work with balance and gait training. I think it would yield much more benefit than a podiatrist. If arthritis in your feet/toes is an issue, Voltaren gel otc works well. Generic is fine! I also mounted a small flashlight on my walker so I can see better at night getting to bathroom. The motion sensor nightlights are invaluable for night safety. Amazon has multi packs cheap. As for supplements I would add folate for prevention of the PN getting worse. Low dose gabapentin Rx may help with the paresthesias. I recommend starting at 100mg and going up from there if needed. I hope this helps. Living with the pN and being off balance constantly in fear is awful. You have lots of fellow sufferers here who understand!
