My husband’s Parkinsons causes neuropathy with pain in his legs and feet. Lyrica did not help. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I understand your reluctance to go to the pool. However exercise is the only thing that will slow the progression of Parkinson’s.

Try YouTube. They have exercise videos specifically for Parkinson’s. You can watch them and follow along in the comfort of you own home. For free.
