@suetex Water aerobics aka water physical therapy. Find a physical therapy place that has a pool. They do exist. I did a year and a half of water physical therapy. They have a tread mill and a camera where there can watch you walk under water and make adjustments to how you walk. Plus if you fall less likely to fall. The water helps with the balance and dizziness. I also Amon panzyga IVIG. It makes a huge difference in balance. I have a son in a motor cycle accident. And about the third week I start loosing my balance in trying to help get him dressed fed and up. I am asking my doctor to change it from every four weeks to every three weeks.
I noticed yesterday that I was having problems with my feet and hands swelling and hurting to walk.

@artemis1886 Please tell me what is Amon panzyga IVIG? Is it a treatment or a prescription? I have PN with major issue as loss of balance with minimal pain flashes, but definitely foot issues and some finger issues just starting.my neurologist who diagnosed me a few years ago has said that she can do nothing for me. Comments welcome. Pam Manson

@artemis1886 Do you know if your problem is autonomic in nature? Your situation must be very frustrating, to say the least.
