Hello rivermaya,
Sounds like you’ve handled the adjustment pretty well. That 1/4 of a mile sounds very familiar as it’s the same for my walking.
I’ve had this new neurologist for about four appts. She felt the fatigue is not due to nuerology. Gave no suggestion as to what it might be. I asked what’s our next step and she suggested check out heart, lungs, thyroid and anemia. That turned out to be 5 tests and 5 doctor appts. Thankfully all good.
I wrote her back how nueropathy causes muscle weakness in legs, reduced endurance, tiredness and numbness. She hasn’t responded. Don’t think she knows what she’s talking about.
Thanks for your input.

Hi there, I’m new to this thread but your post interested me because my legs have been feeling more tired than usual. I’m pretty sure I have neuropathy In my feet (no pain but have numbness in both feet. - toes and pads of feet). I thought maybe it was from my cervical spine cause I have farominal stenosis in c-5, c-6 and c-7. But they’re telling me it would only affect my feet if it was stenosis in lumbar spine. I’ve started taking B-12 about 3 weeks ago. It’s probably psychosomatic but feel like it’s (numbness) improved a little.
I have noticed that my usual walk up a gradual hill is more difficult for me with my legs feeling tired and a little out of breath. Is this actually a symptom from neuropathy? I’m a 66 year old woman who has been pretty active most my life so any advice is appreciated!
