I have similar symptoms to yours and no pain. My flair came shortly after a prolonged period of inactivity and a hip replacement. I could hardly walk 500 feet and my balance was bad. I began walking on a treadmill, attempting "hands free" for short periods. I have been at this for 9 months now. I can now walk "hands free" for a mile and my balance is much improved. I also ride my bike often. So, I agree that exercise that works on balance and muscle stregnth, is the key. My Neurologist thinks my neuropathy is heridiety and I will be having a nerve biopsy in a few weeks. Yes, stay safe and active!
