Kat600 - I’m almost twice your age and I also wonder. Will it get worse? Etc. I feel your pain. Hang in there. Medicine is moving fast these days. There is always hope. Lars.

Hello @pitepalten and @kat600, I would like to welcome you both to Connect. I'm 78 and first noticed my neuropathy in my late 40s with some numbness in my toes. Other members and myself have posted their neuropathy story and what has helped them in another discussion you might find helpful here -- Member Neuropathy Journey Stories: What's Yours?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/member-neuoropathy-journey-stories-whats-yours/

There are a couple of really good sites for learning more about neuropathy and different treatment options that you might find helpful.

-- Neuropathy Commons: https://neuropathycommons.org/neuropathy/neuropathy-overview
-- Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy: https://www.foundationforpn.org/

Do you mind sharing what treatments or therapies you have tried or found helpful?
