I am turning 70 years old and have recently come down with neuropathy in both feet. I have been a runner most my life and I currently teach exercise classes for seniors. In addition I work for a cancer non profit where I teach meditation and visualization. I have found for myself the hardest thing to accept is, our bodies break down. This can happen at different times in our lives. No matter how much you've taken care of your physical health it's going to happen. This is my struggle, acceptance without resignation. I have found little help from the medical system for this thing called neuropathy unfortunately. I started my you tube channel Old Vine Zen initially for my cancer patients, but now, with my new diagnoses, I realize it can help all of us. Come and visit my channel, sit with me as we travel down the road with this terrible condition. If we can't walk down the path, we can at least imagine a more peaceful existence. Everything starts with the imagination, right?

Janetlee. How does one locate Old Vine Zen? I am into the music, some tai chi exercises and the believe that it is mind over matter and that we become what we thing about most of the time. I just turned 80 and every day I get up and telll my self that 80 is the new 60...therefore I become 60 and go about my day with that in mind.

Thanks for your post,

Dear Janet. Thanks for the U Tube recommendaton. I will try it this evening or tomorrow.

My neuropathy is mostly in the upper thighs. I recentaly (last night) took the 3 recommend pills of MAG R&R which is MAG Muscle and Sleep Support and it worked...so far. In addition to that and in the past year or so? I have used Dr. Joe's Maximum Strength Neuropathy Hemp Cream by slathering it with a tissue on my legs and feet, toes, where ever I think I might have a problem during the night. My clue comes during the day when I feel a slight pull in my upper legs. I know then I will have a problem later. This has worked for me. I also have been taking Magnesium at night before bed and that seems to help me as well. Just my experiences. Good Luck and thanks again. Judith
