Neuropathy: Numbness only, no pain
Neuropathy | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (508)Comment receiving replies
I too have neuropathy in feet & hands, use a walker to get around after many falls, a few fractures too. Fortunately no pain, am concerned that one day I may lose the ability to walk, do try to keep a daily journal, though on occasion have difficulty to read what I have written! Am very slow, tell folk I have two speeds.....dead slow,...and stop!! Anyone else in a similar position?..frustration level is high, used to be a fast walker, folk were always saying "slow down, I can't keep up with you"...!!

emwilliams - I can relate to your comment, for decades my wife would say slow down...I was a fast walker. Now, it is visa versa, she has to walk slow for me. I now know how she felt! I do walk with a cane from time to time, depends on distance but it is about five times slower compared to my normal pace. I think progression of PN differs with all of us so I do try to walk every day despite the difficulty. In 2015 when this started, one neuro doc told me to keep moving, keep walking. Probably best advise I've received so far.
