How do you manage neuropathy and loss of balance and walking ability?

You need to see a neuromuscular neurologist and a neuromuscular physical therapist. Neuromuscular helps with muscles and neurological disorders. I learned this from Dr Anne Oaklander in Boston. She also practices in other states. My neuropathy is autoimmune. I have balance issues and dizziness. I was put on IVIG Panzyga. It has helped a lot. I have lupus Hashimotos Sjogrens and connective tissue disorder.

@artemis1886 I'm a huge fan of Dr. Oaklander, thanks to her wonderful YouTube video: https://youtu.be/s66LvWQ5Qso
I didn't realize that she's available to see patients, including via Telehealth. I'm sure there's a waitlist, but I'm going to try to get on it.
It's taken me years of various symptoms, doctors, diagnoses to finally get diagnosed with small fiber neuropathology through a skin punch biopsy. Now I'm on a journey to find out what's causing it; right now we're looking at mixed connective tissue disorder and an autoimmune disorder. I'd love her input. Thanks for posting.
