Hi, kendallchase

I also did PT for a number of years. I've enough handouts here to prove it. After all those years, however, I've culled the many exercises down to my "daily dozen," those that seem to do me some good. They divide themselves neatly into two categories, six each: balance and leg-strengthening. The whole routine takes me 30-40 minutes to do. Some days I do the routine twice. As I say, these are the exercises that appear to be helping me. My chief PN complaint is poor balance, which, of course, makes walking – even short distances – both a struggle and not very pleasant (that's why the leg-strengthening).

I wish you luck in finding a routine or therapy that works for you!

Cheers!

Thanks for the helpful information. How long have you been dealing with PN? I started about 3 years with back pain and after 2 surgeries, PT and seeing a neurologist, I recently was diaganosed with PN due to the chemo I had because of breast cancer. I hope I can find the exercises and routine that works for me. Best wishes to you!

Would love to know what types of balancing routines and exercises you’re doing that seem to be helping you.
