I searched but couldn't really find anything on this. Diagnosed Aug and Nov 2011, All lower motor, no signs of upper. I heard PMA is slow progression - don't believe it as I can only manage few steps with walker -usually transfering. Feet swell horribly, sometimes turn red and purple...but goes back to normal during sleeping. I sleep with pillow beneath knees-because without it hurt. Now I wake middle of night with terrible pain..like knees are locked in that position. Hubby has to physically bend my knees, which starts out really painful...then it's much better. 2 hours later it starts all over again. Does anyone else have this problem? It's like the tendons need to be stretched.
Thanks
