In the last week I have just been diagnosed with neuropathy and it bloody hurts! I've had the numbness in my feet for a while but thought it was plantar fasciitis.
Stabbing pains in the metatarsals have set in and they are definitely not fun; and they are severely limiting my life in that just dashing off on foot to see x or y or z or to do a or b or c now requires taking a stick and being prepared to be knifed in the foot if I move awkwardly or walk too far.
NOT HAPPY!!!
I am seriously considering getting a mobility scooter ... It'll be dual purpose: A hedge against needing petrol for the car if I can go to the village to do the shopping on my scooter, and it'll mean I can still dash around to see x or y or z or to do a or b or c.
One saving grace is that I can still do Aquamove - being in the pool exercising seems to be pain-free. Thankfully I am doing that twice a week and will continue to do so.
Send chocolate!
