I am 100% for a regular exercise. Exercise serves my mood, lungs and PN. even when PN is painful, I still try to walk and when pain is worse, I do the stationary bicycle because it has less pressure on my feet and legs. During those "normal" pain level days, the pain disappears while walking, but once you stop walking and just standing, you will curse your neighbor.lol. I don't know why is the pain becomes tolerable while walking and becomes intolerable while just standing ??? I remember one poster wrote that just thinking of standing in line makes his blood pressure go up.

There are days though that I really cannot walk. During those days, I try to lift weights. But this hurts my osteoarthritis in my fingers. Oh well, don't ask me if there is any part of my body that does not hurt....lol.
