I had to read through your story a couple of times! Wow, you could write a book with some of your adventures…medical and otherwise! You sound pretty rough and tumble…not much holds you back, that’s for sure!

Neuropathy is a pain in the…well, anywhere you have it! It’s not uncommon to have those symptoms with any type of bone marrow/blood disorder along with age, medications, inflammation, diabetes, etc.. I’ve gone through it myself and it’s no picnic

There are quite a few conversations in the neuropathy group that you might find helpful.
Here’s just one of many:

I hope you can dust off that bike when the weather gets a little nicer…well, that depends on where you are! LOL. I’m in the cold northern part of the US right now. Getting ready to head back to Florida after a holiday break up here with family.

I am also n Fl. Central part. Welcome home

I, too live in the northern parts of U.S., and a small town and nature is my favorite place to be to heal and soothe what ails me...well, almost! My feet are very important, and neuropathy sure set me back but I try to stay active, summer or winter and fishing, hunting, wildlife viewing, hiking, exploring new scenic places is a great medicine, and has "zero side affects!"😉 I am so glad to have found this site/forum to read and correspond with others who have some symptoms like I do. I can read some of these symptoms and struggles and realize, I'm not in too bad of health condition for a 65+ of age person. I have friends who are much younger and have far worse health than me. One friend told me, when he wakes up every morning, the medicine he takes, and he said it looks like a "bowl of cereal!" I wanted to laugh, but my heart wouldn't let me! Hope we ALL find a solution to our health problems and can live and ENJOY our ONLY life till the clock quits ticking!!
