Kia Ora Numbfoot, from across the ditch.

Can you tell me more about the one that says walking in the dark without falling over.

I have vertigo due to other reasons but I've definitely noticed that this is much worse lately. Is this related to proprioception, (place in space)? Is it a foot problem or a brain/eye problem or both do you know? I should put on a dark eyemask in the day and test it out. I try not to do that sort of thing too often though.

Some of us, or most of us with PN affected feet would be more prone to falling day or night but what is the connection with the dark that you listed?

Also regarding the fingertips and touchpads. Oh boy. Trying to type a message on a tiny screen on a phone can be very difficult. My fingertips are affected but fortunately only a little bit, like where the fingerprints are situated, but it's not spread into my hands too much thank goodness. Feet and lower legs the worst.

Lots of finger/hand ones on the list.
Needlework or any hand sewing is very difficult too.
Trying to thread a needle for example.

take care.
