I can sympathize with you. I had a couple of falls. the most severe and worse, was at my son's residence. It was a hard landing, no injury. A piece of his furniture was totally damaged and my son helped me up. Embarrassed, realization kicked in that, things aren't the same anymore. That event was hard on me and coming to terms with my disability that didn't have a major impact on my daily activities initially because of my isolation from the public, which was avoided because, contracting Covid-19 again was unthinkable, but it happened later. You must understand a person like myself, with high blood pressure, was a Covid-19 target three to four times more likely before those who were not. My wife's relatives brought the virus with them from Europe in January/February 2020. They thought it was the flu according to their doctor at the time because, no one knew it was something else. My wife gave it to me, March 2020 and later that month, EMS wheeled me to the hospital ICU unit, unconscious. Where I remained hospitalized for almost 80 days.

@oobc50 has anyone had the suggestion that electro stimulation using an implant could alleviate the pain from neuropathy?
