Anyone here dealing with peripheral neuropathy?

Ronni: I've been wearing braces for the last 2-3 years and I can tell you they make a tremendous difference. I had gone to a chiropractor that I had to pay out of pocket for treatment. He was against the braces, but I went with the medical advice I received and started wearing them. I can now drive and do most anything I want to. They helped my balance tremendously and half the time people don't even notice I'm wearing them. It's worth it to be independent. I went for a year not being able to drive and it was miserable. So I am a big advocate of the braces.

Thank you so much for your post, @bburleson1!
I live in Florida and I am concerned about it making me warmer than I already am.
But now, you have given me the desire and confidence to use the brace.
You are so right about being independent and being able to drive.
I want that FREEDOM!!!!
I wear shorts almost all year round so I am sure it will be noticed, but I don't care!
I am not real big on what people think.
My philosophy is if you don't like it, don't look.
One question, do you wear one or two??

Thanks again, I really appreciate your post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
