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

@carmen332 Hi Carmen, I also have balance issues with this idiopathic neuropathy, along with burning and tingling, no pain to complain about. I just purchased Accelera Proprio ankle devices for ankles, battery operated. I have been wearing them for 4 days now, can take at least 3 weeks to see any difference. They do give a 30 day return. Also they are having a sale this summer, $50.00 off. I think I am on the right track for more stability, makes sense as to what the devices are trying to do. I wish I understood a little bit better, I am blonde, sort of, I blame it on that. I will keep everyone posted, if interested. Never give up and keep MOVING!!

@allegheny Thank you for your reply. I will look up the ankle brace you provided. My first ankle/foot doc ordered me a custom fit brace based on a mold he took of ankle. It was a disaster. It fit and worked as long as i did not wear shoes. Had to jump shoe size 2 sizes to fit over brace. Stuck that in back of closet. My present doc is suggesting braces that have metal bars up to a knee connection. The hell with that for now. So some online stuff i ordered does give me a bit more stability. Its a daily search for something that works for pain and balance issues. And the scams and junk out there are just unbelievable. So persevere we must. Thank again for info.
