@loria2 Thank you for sharing. Please tell me.... how was your balance with the exoskeleton?
Had you had balance problems from your neuropathy? Best wishes! Mike

I had balance issues with the neuropathy, but it resolved with the surgery/shunt.

Hi! Balance is really quite bad lately. The exoskeleton is helpful for it. My experience has been it allows me to go outside without my cane. I am still careful, but the increased "sturdiness" helps the balance. My left leg is very bad, with foot drop. I set the Hypershell for more power on the left to help it. Neuropathy is awful. I am trying to not end up in a wheelchair and the hypershell helps a lot - I am now wearing it even inside on 'bad days' - when legs are super wonky and weak! Feel free to message. I think using it will enable me to go further, longer, if that makes sense.
