I have extreme neuropathy. I can't balance, on my feet, the pain goes up my legs to my knees. My legs feel like logs. They are cold in the morning. I get shooting electric pains shooting into my legs. These pains have been getting stronger, and now I get them on the bottom of my toes. My hands are numb most of the time, and I can't pick up things, and I drop things all the time. My colon feels like it's clogged. I used to have small pencil size, bowl movements. now they are more like mush. I feel like my colon is clogged. I don't know what to do. My doctor told me when I was diagnosed that there was no cure for me. I have felt like I've been dying for the last few years. I refuse to go back to him, he was a jerk. I am currently away from home for the next 5 months. Last year I fell and broke my femur, had surgery, and fell again, and broke the same femur in a different place. The surgeries have made my neuropathy spread quickly. I'm afraid to have any surgery.

Welcome @eep, I'm sorry to hear you are struggling with your neuropathy symptoms. I know it must be extremely difficult to deal with. I wonder if you might find some treatment ideas that you haven't seen before on the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy's website here:

Have you looked into any exercises or therapy to help with your balance?

Hi, I just want to address one thing. Every time I had to change medications or diet for high Blood Pressure my constipation would show its ugliness. My daughter who is in the Medical Field, turned me on to Colon Max. I have only found it online, but it is a natural product that REALLY works. The amount, either one or two capsules can solve that bowel problem.
Good Luck!!
