@user_che214927 @rwinney @jesfactsmon And of course to all my Neuropathy Friends, Man, the posts are so inspirational today! How I needed to read them! I am going to try some neuro plasticity techniques, starting with typing with the opposite hand. I may do this when I am in terrible pain, and hopefully, it will utterly confuse my brain. Sometimes I try to concentrate on a body part close to my feet, and how wonderful that body part is. But that does not do much. I don 't know, because I am not consistent. Rachel, I can't tell you how happy how hard you try. I would have a terrible time not hugging you in person. With covid, we would have to bump butts or something, and I would surely knock you over with my big one. God, Rachel, I am just so proud of you. And Hank, typing with your other hand? What a hoot. Now, Barry, I am the one who asked for you to post the things that help you. Little did I know how far you are going with neuro plastic techniques, and feeling better. You are just a joy, and an inspiration!!! You have created excitement here!!! Thanks so much. I am going to go reread everything you do, and try practicing everything. Of course, I will go to my library and pick up Norman Doidge's books. Just thank you so much, Barry. You are adorable. Love to all, Lori Renee

@lorirenee1 Lol! My, my how you make me laugh! Oh, I would totally hug you in person too. We all need a boost some days and I know you especially do. If I can ever help you or anyone, Im glad to do it. Wishing you good distraction today, and flowers for you too my friend. XOXOXO
Best wishes,
Rachel

Hey @lorirenee1 Lori, if anybody will go out of their way to try something new to help those rascally feet, it's you. (I am switching to my dominant hand this second as writing the other way is frustratingly slow.) You got a LOT of heart, and SPUNK, kid. And unlike Lou Grant, I LOVE spunk (Mary Tyler Moore Show reference) . And guess what? I'd hug you no problem. I personally am getting pretty sick and tired of all these ridiculous restrictions. I know, not ridiculous for everyone. Mostly just us oldies. But I would take that risk. Always lifts my day whenever you chime in here my good friend. Best to you, Hank

PS: In another post I asked whether you have ever tried cayenne pepper on your feet? I am not sure I have heard anyone here say that they have. I figured you might have though.
