Before I was diagnosed I started falling down stairs, nothing major but a twisted ankle. But one piece of advice I'll give is invest in closed toed shoes, i like cross because they are lightweight. Last year I was going up the stairs with no shoes on and stubbed my foot bad. I ended up having a small fracture in my toe. This year I fell down some stairs and hit that same toe.
I couldn't walk 2 minutes without it hurting and swelling months after so I just had surgery 2 weeks ago.
Crocs, or the like, have been lifesaver especially moving around inside. If i bump something, no biggie.
Just remember to wear them!!

I wear a pair of dedicated Hoka Ones like slippers around the house. Light, very comfortable,rounded heel.
