Good morning Ronnie! @grandmar, Glad you found this discussion. Age 75 - my experience and 2 cents with my idiopathic small fiber neuropathy...
1. Driving - I can still drive, do not like driving more than an hour or so, or at night.
2. Can neuropathy be reversed? - maybe, depends on type, cause, etc..
3. Can neuropathy progression be stopped? - maybe, I think mine has been slowed or stopped but it's subjective on my part - my story shared here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/anyone-here-dealing-with-peripheral-neuropathy/?pg=42#comment-65985
4. What limitations have YOU had? I try not to let the old man in - I can't run anymore ☺ and can only do moderate exercise.
5. I walk with a cane but I still fall and/or trip. How about YOU? Me too sometimes but I'm hoping to ditch the cane after a knee replacement next month.
6. Have you gone for aquatic or land PT? Has it helped? Nope, but I think it has helped a lot of people.

7. Do you experience pain? Nope, numbness only
8. How quickly did YOUR neuropathy progress or have you been able to slow it down or stop its progress? - link for question 3
9. Has surgery been suggested? Nope

As much as I would love it, there is no cure for neuropathy - still waiting for the magic bullet. Diabetic neuropathy is really the only type that I have read that can be reversed but I have no medical training or background so it's just what I have read.

Hoping my neuropathy friends have a pain free day or at least are able to deal with it to make it feel like it's better.
