@antelibetta On the question of shoes, I must wear sneakers. I also have drop foot which started around 2019. I must wear ankle foot orthotics, mine are made by Ottobock. The "brace" fits into the sneaks and keeps my ankle at approximately a 90-degree angle, so my toes don't get caught which can make me trip forward. In my case, sneaks are the most comfortable.

This is John. Joined yesterday. Idiopathic PN for 20 years. I have used an ortho shoe with a brace insert due to drop foot. Found another shoe that doesn't require brace. Always pain in feet and hands- take tramadol.
Experience fatigue throughout the day. Don't know if PN is the cause. Have high blood pressure and diabetes also.
