Wow, en bloc, I really picked up on the 'foot collapsing' part of your post. I have profound PN, and my legs have atrophied (calf muscle shrinking), but ALSO I have 'felt' that my feet were literally collapsing.

I didn't quite put it into those words, in my mind, and I haven't mentioned it to any of my myriad of doctors. Because what can I do?

I wear braces most of the time, but when I take them off, I can see that my feet are 'smaller' 'flatter', the bones stand out tho' even the bones seem to be shrinking.

When I walk barefoot (to the bathroom at night) with my walker, I can sense that my feet are much flatter and that the cushioning on the bottoms is disappearing.

I feel like Alice in Wonderland, as I wave farewell to parts of my body. No magic mushrooms however.

Just PN and all the attendant joys.

Regards, ElaineD
