Good morning, all! In all of my interactions with medical folk, specifically in light of this thread about burning feet and numb legs, I am found it to be extremely important to ask any clinician, including (and maybe especially including physical therapists) if they've had experience helping people with our various neuropathies. My biggest complaint, as a result of my idiopathic peripheral neuropathy, is poor balance (oddly enough, with no pain). I have had occasions to work with a number of well-meaning physical therapists, only to discover that our sessions were aimed primarily at helping people whose advanced age was the sole cause of their balance issues. I would have to explain that, as a person with idiopathic PN, my sensations are often quite different and need somewhat different approaches. –Ray (@ray666)
