Life with Neuropathy

Hi, my name is John. A nd I have CIDP (Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy ). When you have CIDP you must often  figure out different ways to get where you want to go. I use the edge of the bed, sturdy chairs, dressers, and tables at times. I'm very creative. But mostly I rely on my walker to get anywhere. And by anywhere what I really mean is everywhere.  Besides a walker, I discovered that I needed grab bars. Helping hands , so to speak.  I never thought I'd have to hire someone to put in grab bars for me in my own bathroom but frankly it was a good investment. That's because it allows me to continue to maintain some semblance of independence in this very personal arena. These sturdy bars help me when I need it most. They give me something to hold onto. A place of safety. I have lost so much mobility but being able to continue to wash up, brush and floss, take a shower, and use the toilet are important abilities to maintain.  How about you? What changes ha
