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

May I ask what pain pills you purchased.

It looks like I will have to get a walker pretty soon. Any recommendations?

Morning. Tablets prescribed in spainsh...Aspirin, acid reflux tablets and variliv for circulation. Pain relief none !!

I am using Panzyga IVIG and it helps with my dizziness and balance

This is what ny neuromuscular physical therapist recommended for me they have been a God send. They help me up curbs and steps. They do better that my walker. I own both.

I have peripheral neuropathy and I take top cherry for muscle pain and that seems to be working. I just started working with a chiropractor who is helping me with exercises and some adjustments.

Oh I'm so sorry. Nothing seems to work. 😢

This almost looks like I wrote it

Balance and numbness (is this a word?!) of feet are my peripheral neuropathy issues. I am 77 yrs. old and just diagnosed recently after being diagnoses with Diabetes 2. I am still trying to make sense of everything. One thing that seems to be truthful is that there is no cure for PN.
I read posts daily as I try to figure out what will work for me and what is a waste of time. I recently ordered a portable walker from Amazon and I am still trying to figure out my vanity vs. practicality of use. I do know that when I put my ego aside and use it that I feel much more stable and less worried about falling. The couple of times that I have fallen in the last 6 mos. have been due to possibly moving too quickly and not having a good foothold so I am also trying to be very conscientious of my movements and trying to realize that I cannot do things quickly anymore. Is this just an old age problem or PN? I don't know as everyone's experience is different. I use to love gardening, walking as a form or exercise but can no longer do that. I am sort of grieving these losses and trying to find alternatives like container gardening at waist level, congratulating myself when I get household chores accomplished ie. washing the kitchen floor etc. I don't know but this aging gracefully thing is real and difficult at the same time. I would just love to extend a blanket thought for all of us who are suffering from either physical or mental challenges and that is "please, please go easy on yourself". We are all our worst enemies and I think it is really easy to assign blame and to not extend to ourselves the same courtesy that we would to others. We are all in this together folks...one planet and just mankind. We are all doing the best that we can do. No, not everyday, but most days and that is ENOUGH!!!! Thanks.

@scain - Thanks for your post and I believe many of us can relate to your comments. Putting your ego aside is very difficult yet being safe and being less worried about falling is vital. I went through a similar situation when I decided to begin using a cane. It was a tough decision for me, but I need it for numbness and poor balance. After a few falls I decided that my ability to remain on two feet is more important. No falls in two years. I've had PN for 9 years and I've made adjustments along the way. After 52 years of being married, my wife passed away unexpectedly in February of this year and since then, I've had to make many more adjustments. I've placed safety above everything. Continue doing your gardening even at waist level. it works. Best to you!
