I am sure this happens for any number of reasons.
One question I have-I plan on starting an exercise program. I can walk, so I'd rather do that instead of biking so I can get the weight bearing benefits for my bones also. I know I need to start slowly. Does anyone have any advice?
I also would like to start some mild yoga/pilates.
I find I hardly notice the neuropathy when I am moving around.

Hello ellsac, I am trying to wean myself from a walker and found in my town a recreation center that is subsidized by the parks & recreation dept. There is the equipment choices a person needs and water Zumba classes for non weight-bearing work also. Carving out time for your own benefit is a good way IMHO to reduce the stress that bombards us all. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
