Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?
Neuropathy | Last Active: 4 hours ago | Replies (3260)Comment receiving replies
@njed I have wandered about CMT but when I mentioned the toes and arches the neurologist didnt say much other than its the motor nerves causing it.
I noticed one day in the mirror my arch wasnt flattening / retracting. I put the bad balance down due to neuropathy but its the high arches causing me to walk on the outside of me feet. Its an annoying uncomfortable feeling.
I guess its not CMT as no one else in my family has CMT and I believe its hereditary? I might as well have it though since the symptoms are the same including muscle wasting. Mine is axonal as well.
Has anything helped you at all in the 11 years?

@megidigo Anything helped me? Short answer, no. But...I know this is a progressive situation and I try to keep active and keep moving as much as I can. Walking is important. Even short distances and often. I feel by keeping active, it may not stop progression but may slow it down. I've often posted on this site to look at what you can do and NOT what you can't do. Wish you the best! Ed
