Hi @johnbishop ,
Thanks for the welcoming post. I currently ride a tricycle weather permitting, I also have a rower & a stationary bike. I do Pilates & a bit of yoga. I've always been blessed with great flexibility. I'm searching for something that perhaps someone can give me suggestions that I haven't already tried for relief of the constant pain & discomfort.

Some folks have found changing the type of shoes can sometimes provide a little relief. Have you seen the discussion on shoes when you have neuropathy?
--- Does anyone find that a type of shoe helps your foot neuropathy?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/does-anyone-find-that-a-brand-of-shoes-helps-your-foot-neuropathy/

Have you tried acupuncture? I found that 5 sessions helped me relax and provided a different sense of comfort. It wasn’t suggested as a lifelong therapy, but I plan to schedule occasional follow-ups every now and then.

Jakegram23 you haven’t mentioned acupuncture for PN which has shown positive for some people. The other thing I will suggest is mindfulness meditation to help you come to terms with PN. You shouldn’t have to suffer like this.
