      Here are some great exercise recommendations, with photos, from the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy.

      Regarding muscle fatigue, I recently had an appointment with yet another neuromuscular specialist. He suggested L-Carnitine 300mg 1 taken 3 times a day and COQ10 100 mg 1 taken 3 times a day. As it turns out, I was already taking those.

      I found it interesting that he made the recommendation for supplements without me asking about it.

      Regarding physical therapy he said “yes, you can be taught what to do, but sooner or later, you need to do the exercises on your own.”

      thanks–I will check that site out–am always interested in exercises that will help. I can still do my regular exercises with free weights for body parts not affected–but its hard to find exercises that are so weak from the cidp to do. I , too heard of the supplements you mentioned as being good for muscle fatigue- I have been taking the c0q10– a type with extra mitichondrial support and i feel it has helped me. Lori
