Actually, the only thing I have done is walking, never more then a smaller, brisker pace. I have been afraid to do anything else due to the pain I start to feel...

Pain can have a negative effect itself on the course of any illness, as it increases stress.
I am in the same boat, I went running around the GG Park 10 days ago and I am still paying for it. I was fine for the first few days after running but then all hell broke loose - burning, deep aches, stinging, twitching.

Very true about the stress chamade. Yep, it seems like I am also having a delayed effect after the activity...

I use a Gazelle, and often, go at a good clip. It is very easy on joints. I put on my headset with fast music and go at it!

Sounds fun. I miss the kind of exercise I used to do, even the treadmill. I tried to go on it after developing PN , but the muscle cramps and pains I felt in my legs afterwards were awful....
