I'm sorry to hear that you have neuropathy.
If I were you, I wouldn't fear what may or may not happen in the future. 99% of the things you worry about never happen and the other one percent is going to happen regardless so what's the point in worrying about it.
I developed neuropathy 40 years ago with all the horrible pain & balance issues. Many years later the pain went away replaced by numbness. The numbness went from my feet just past my waist causing ED, bladder & bowel complications. The numbness eventually regressed and is mild now and mostly affects my feet with some in my ankles and lower legs. I do have weakness in my legs. It's difficult to tell how much of my balance problems are related to neuropathy and how much is due to my seizures and seizure medications.
Take care,
Jake
