I have peripheral neuropathy and it’s getting worse. In fact I have autonomic peripheral neuropathy. I have no pain. But I can barely walk. I fell today. My balance is terrible. What do you people do. Is there any relief from this

It’s me again. I do not have diabetes, in fact my blood sugar is perfect. My neurologist thinks I may have gotten it from taking dilantin for years.

Hello @straightway22, welcome to Connect. Sorry to hear that you fell and also have peripheral neuropathy. I also have no pain with my neuropathy but I do have balance issues like you. There are some exercises you can do to help with the balance issues. There is a discussion that you may want to read through and see what others have done to help their balance problems.

Have you looked at any different therapies or exercises to help with your balance problem?
