Hi @fal nice to hear from you. I am glad you will continue with exercising which always seems to have its benefits specifically with circulation as with you. Circulation stimulates the growth of new nerve cells. It can slow down the progression of neuropathy. Time will go by regardless of what you do so you might as well do something positive for yourself. You never know where it may lead. I have neuropathy and muscle weakness as a result of my AVM four years ago. I have found strengthening my torso has stopped my falls. My reaction time with movements is much quicker allowing me to maintain my balance. I haven’t had a fall in over 3 years but if I do I am able to use my hands to cushion my fall and sustain less injuries. Besides improved circulation that is a good motivator to keep exercising for me. We don’t need more health issues to deal with, lol. My imbalance issues have limited my exercise routines. I do 10 minute sessions many times throughout the day. I use a mini stepper and mini cycle machine. I want to add a third inexpensive machine for extending my exercise routines. There are foldable treadmill machines($150) that do not use electricity and therefore can be placed anywhere in a room. They have the handles for balance. I thought to use the treadmill while watching TV. Is this low aerobic activity something you can do? Have you thought about this form of exercise? If you find your legs become weak after your exercise perhaps consider a less duration but do the exercise more often in the day. The weakness I experience is immediately following the exercise activity and very short lived. Wish you well. Toni
