Thank you for your response. I've been dealing with neuropathy for 20+ years, and of course I've had to make adjustments. Mine isn't too bad during the day as long as I'm vertical. I can only sleep for an hour or two at a time, so I try to nap in the recliner during the day. I don't waste my time wishing things were different. I'm a pragmatist and accept things as they are. At age 85, I'm still able to drive, which is a good thing because hubby is in a nursing home that's a two and a half hour drive from here.
Thanks again for your clarification.

feetie - I read your post and you ARE an encouragement for many of us with PN and to be honest, here you are 85 years old and been dealing with neuropathy for 20 years. So sorry to hear about husband in a nursing home but glad you have that ability to drive and see him. Stay positive! Ed

Have you considered cannabis? At your age you have nothing to lose and potentially gain some relief. I injured my self in 1988 and my current status is a result of ignoring my back care once I was able to return to work. You live and learn. Sorry your spouse is in a nursing home.
