How do you manage neuropathy and loss of balance and walking ability?

I fit as much walking, Tai Chi, balance, flexibility, body weight and band strength exercises in as I can manage.
I'm not completelty religious about it, as motivation ebbs and flows. Still, I do the best I can.
Massage, stretching, contrast therapy and tens help in recovery when I over do things.
I keep a diary so that when I try a new activity or supplement, I can better assess its' effectivenes (that's the old engineer in me coming out).

@newtoni48 keep trying! Mine has become virtually unbearable and poor enough my I watch is telling me I am off balance🙈🙈🙈🙈. Adding Osteoarthritis to them is not helping! I wish I could do better🙏!

You certainly have a plan. I have PN due to celiac disease but more recently I had a shin shave biopsy and am trying to recover from that. The shin is a sensitive area and it has been 8 weeks and I am still dealing with some pain from that. I am doing PT plus I do a stretch program on TV. I want to get exercise to maintain health but I cannot overdo it. It is good that you are keeping a diary so that you can discern what works for you. I should do the same. Do you also write down what symptoms or effects you are feeling?
