Hello. Me, 73... old runner and active my entire life surfing, hiking etc. You just gotta keep moving. Walk on grass, tartan track and GET HOKA SHOES or an equivalent. Avoid "low balling" shoes as you will likely pay the price later. Best bets: stationary bike, walking, swimming, lifting etc. at your own pace. Avoid sitting for more than an hour. For me, no dish goes unwashed for more than 20 minutes and my wife is thrilled but it keeps me from getting lazy. You just have to ratchet down your routines as PN "rears its head" in so many different ways for everyone. I would avoid attaching any connection to COVID vaccination. I have found no medical support for this but if you have, please post reference.

Thank you for your response. I should have retired but can't sit still and let my brain not work (not that it does anyway!!) I need to leave work in my home office and get up and walk. Sometimes, I get so involved, it is lunch or dinner time. I do exercises in my pool for at least 60 minutes when the pool is warm enough which is normally from May through September. I have a nice stationary bike. I will consider using it. I did get the COVID vaccine based on my Neurologist recommendation based on previous issues. I've noticed it has magnified my Neuropathy which seems to have spread to the thighs. Any suggestions are appreciated.
