Dear @ray666
Yes, my #1 is “poor balance”. It’s o my right leg down to my foot. 4 years ago, I fell down in my garage and hit both rear-ends. That was a 2-4 mths of all the problems. A year ago,I had a doctor that moved it and closed the pain, but still my “poor balance”. He told me the problem “poor balance will n\be there. I work my exercise my listing, walking (with rollers).
How can I?
Thx,
Greg D @greg1956

Good morning, Greg D (@greg1956)
I emphasize. As my opening post indicated, poor balance is my No. 1 problem. I'm so fortunate that my particular breed of neuropathy doesn't also give me pain. I've given a lot of thought since my diagnosis in 2022 – plus done a ton of reading – about poor balance (What can be done to fix it?), only to come to the conclusion that there's no quick fix; the only thing I can do, besides the usual bromides (eat well, get plenty of sleep, etc.) is physical therapy – and Keep Moving! I do PTonce-a-week. I also use a kitchen timer to remind me to get up and move about, even if only brief stroll around the house. Are you doing PT, Greg? Has your doctor diagnosed neuropathy? What sort of neuropathy? And is your doctor a neurologist or has he some other specialty?
Here's wishing you a good day today, Greg!
