My PALS has very cold feet and ankles. Can anyone please tell me what can cause this? He is wearing wool socks in the house and holding a heating pad to his feet and ankles when it's 72 degrees, but then at the same time having hot flashes and sitting in nothing but athletic shorts and no shirt at times. He still walks with a little assistance, and just yesterday got a walker. Any thoughts would help. Also, does anyone know if the inability to have a BM/constipation (not sure what the problem is) is from the meds or the ALS? He is all about fiber, fruit, colace, metamucill, etc. There are times he is simply miserable from that. Thanks all.
