many labs, nerve biopsy, emg/ncv, mri, spinal tap, more and more labs, long list.......unfortunately a diagnosis with PN seems to be a matter of ruling out numerous other things.
Every day functioning okay thanks to AFO's. I work full time, drive, walk, exercise, clean house, shop, garden. Most people that don't know me do not know there is anything wrong, as I always wear pants to cover the AFO's.
Things I miss and are not able to do, ski, running, hiking, waterskiing sports.
I find standing in one spot without something to put my hard on for balance difficult too. So going to movies, concerts, places with buffets lines etc are hard for me. As well as outside places where there is not always something to use for balance.
I prefer to shop in places where there is a cart, much easier for me.
