How do you manage the situation when periferal neuropathy affects your balance and walking ability?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I hope this pamphlet downloaded well. You can wear several at one time. I was told that the "Liberty" patch fir the general population is the most popular but I noted one other mentioned Neuropathy and another for immediate pain relief.

@allegheny Hi Donna. My birthday is coming up soon and I was thinking on getting Accelera:-)
I also have a 14 years chronical peripheral neuropathy without pain but still losing my facilités of walking slowly day after day. I’m only 55 and it’s very hard to live with Such an handicapé especially that I was a water sportsman for years but can’t practice any sports anymore. 🙁
and my balance is not getting better. Accelera was recommended to me by my intensive research but there is not a lot of feed back since it’s fairly new. Could let me know if there is any changes since that last info?
How do you feel using it and do you think it really help your balance ?
Thank you so much for your testimony. And good luck 🌞 Stay strong 💪🏽😊

Hi tan guy, hope you live in Florida with your name! Well yes I did wear the Accelera ankle device for 3 weeks, it did not help with balance. Returned them
, minus $70.00. I was willing to lose the money even if they did not work. If you decide to try them follow all the directions including a phone call to the company on how to wear them, charge them etc. I was a little leary about getting my money back if I did not follow ALL of the directions. Everyone that has this dreaded disease is different, could not find anybody that had success with them, another reason to be leary. Beast wishes, your decision, hope they work out. Best thing for me is exercise, water aerobics and swimming, anything that helps with balance, which is really my only big complaint. Keep in touch

@allegheny Ahahaha I’m french but did live in Florida for a few years 🌞
I actually follow the sun to feel better with my peripheral neuropathy. I’m in Brazil and México now for even more sun and natural ways of healing.
Thank you so much for your answer and I guess I Will avoid losing 500$ thanks to your warning.
I’m Always attractif by those external help and devices bit Nothing really works at the end. So thanks you for your honesty and I guess I Will keep walking in the sand and swing everyday as long as I can 🙏🏽
Even if my balance is getting worst little by little. I’m Even carnivore for a year and It did help with the rest of the problems I had (dépression, anxiété, inflammation and others but NOT the merced and balance sadly 🥹
But healing you about accéléra and Nothing improving with time makes me think that walking in the sand is probably the best I can do right now 🙌🏼
Thank you Again

@raebaby What are the patches called and do they interfere or interact with any medications? Are they safe to use and can you buy them over the counter?

They are like tiny square bandages with ridges inside. You can now buy them on Amazon. I've been using them for years and they defnitely help my balance. You don't need a prescription. I buy the Super Patch Liberty patch.

What are the ingredients in these patches and how long do you keep them on etc - do they interfere with anything? How much are they? I dont have much balance. Thank you.

No ingredients. They are small patches about 1inch square. They are called super patches . The Super Patch company makes them. You can Google them.
