@catro hi charlie - i am 89 and dealing with pn much the same way - i have had neuropathy in the feet for years but it was mainly a tingle and a bit of rigidness in the toes at night and i didnt pay attention and hiked, walked, etc for years. It got much worse this year and has progressed to my calves and often to my arms in just a few months. There are not enough neurologists in Denver - it is a 6 month wait to see one and then they often are not taking new patients plus since there is no cure they arent interested. I am amazed I have reached this age in as good a shape as I am = slower and often very tired with little energy which is the worst but i keep going. I have no car so must continue to walk even if just to the bus. I will be moving in a month to senior housing which has an indoor heated pool open all year so I am hoping daily water aerobics will help keep me going. I read this site for information - someone mentioned rubbing the feet with VIcks and it does help at night. Other than that, it is just onward and upward. Dorothy
