Good evening @davidpn. Nice to see you on Connect. The Mississippi River photo was taken at Munsinger Gardens in St. Cloud. We have had a long winter and very late Spring. I was very excited to begin walking again and thought the evening sky color with the quiet river was very comforting. We live right on the Mississippi and we also have a swing.. However, the grounds of these gardens are just stunning so I hop in the car and drive five miles several days a week to practice my walking. I am working with my PT from Mayo Clinic to increase my stability and balance.

Do you live near a River?

Hi Chris,

I’m in Glenview just north of Chicago. Use to do many lakefront bike rides but due to age, PN and basically an unsafe city do not do any longer. Have visited Door County in Wisconsin many times. Beautiful country state parks; hiking, biking etc.

Have a hard time walking let alone biking. After 5-10 minutes I need to take a break. New neurologist tells me the exhaustion and fatigue is not due to PN which really surprised me. After all it only made sense that with legs feeling heavy, tired, stiff, sore that fatigue would be caused by that.

So still investigating what’s going on. Had an appt. today with pulmonologist who basically said the heart and lungs looked ok but had some ideas to check out. Have appt. With cardiologist coming up.

I live across from the forest. Lots,of trees here. Reminds me of Door County. I’ll try to send a pic. Thanks for your response.
