Neuropathy: Numbness only, no pain

kim2 - Weird symptoms, same here. Started bottom of toes, tingle/numbness and got worse over years. From that to such numbness that I have bi-lateral drop foot and poor balance. Numbness and drop foot I can deal with, it's the balance that really annoys me. Neuro doc wants me to try physical therapy with specific exercises towards improved balance. I started a month ago, two days a week, a struggle but I am trying. So far, not a lot of improvement but things take time.

I used to play tennis, but stopped almost three years ago. That is about the time COVID meant restrictions and I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. My balance has not been good since, but I continue to take walks and more recently I started taking Tai Chi Chih classes. I can already see that the latter is a big help. I would definitely recommend any Tai Chi classes for balance.
