Default Hard to drive

New problem in the last few weeks. Diagnosed with PN this summer. Symptoms ongoing for last 5 years. Numbess to knees and elbows. Extreme loss of what Dr referred to as "small muscles" in feet. Now I am having trouble holding/keeping pressure with my left foot on the gas peddle/brake. I feel that my ankle has no flexion at all-but when I try and bend my foot up it does flex upward. The issue is over the top part of my ankle, just dont have the strenth to keep my foot bent up at the angle to use gas/brake peddle. Starting gabapentin this week. Any ideas of cause or suggestions on what I can do to help this situation?
