Are wobbly legs with PN caused by muscle weakness or fear?

I have found that when you have PN you have to work hard on staying as fit as possible. I once was getting ready to order a power wheelchair. Instead I joined the Y. Using leg strengthening machines with weights and building muscle (which can be done with PN) I am walking fine. My core strength is incredible which in turn greatly improved my balance. It's hard work but well worth the benefits.

You've inspired me, @denisejones00. Tomorrow I'm going to make a few phone calls – to the Y, my neighborhood PT clinic, and my doctor's office – to ask what might be the speediest and least costly way to get re-involved with some body work, chiefly leg strengthening. (Y would be no-cost.) I've done PT on and off for years but became disenchanted when I wasn't seeing results. But your post has made me want to give PT one more try, this time to give special emphasis to leg strengthening. So, thank you! ––Ray (@ray666)
