I only have balance problems along with the no feeling from knees down. I have already been
thru all the tests for the neuropathy at Loma Linda University Medical Center and they have
no treatment department for balance issues. They suggested the Mayo balance team, but can't
get in without going thru the Mayo neurology department.

Thanks for your interest.

@bobby12 I have axonal polyneuropathy diagnosed by Mayo in MN in 2020 and earlier at Johns Hopkins 2017. Numbness and poor balance main issues developed into drop foot around 2019. I spoke with my primary doc and she wrote me a script for PT which I believe did help. I was offered balance exercises which, at best, might slow down progression. Like you my issues are south of both knees. I have no pain and for that I am thankful.
