My husband has lost all ability to stand or walk. I've been trying to find others this has happened to so I can find if they'd regained mobility and if so what the treatment is.

Welcome @lmjjt, I'm sorry that your husband has lost his ability to stand or walk. Hoping you can connect with others who have similar issues. I have numbness and some trouble walking any distance and I also can stand very long without much difficulty. I'm thinking about getting a lightweight rollator walker but haven't decided yet. I do have a pair of trekking poles that really help me stay upright in a better walking posture which makes it easier to walk. You might find it helpful to scan through other discussions on Connect where members mention trouble walking. Here's a search link that lists the discussions and member comments - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/?search=trouble+walking.

Has your husband been diagnosed with a specific type of neuropathy?
