even though i had symptoms of balance issues and clumsiness i was aware of before i have always marked the begining of may99 as my pls onset..............this is when the spasms/stiffness started in my legs.
this week is my 12year anniversary of living with pls and it gave me a nasty present to mark the occasion.............a humdinger of a charlie horse that covered the full length of the back of my left leg.:shock:
yes you read correctely!
i woke up screeming about 7.30am this morning in utter agony.
the charlie horse started behind my knee,spread up the back of my thigh and down into the back of my lower leg.
the initial pain lasted about 20minutes but over 3hrs later the whole of the leg at the back is still painfully sore and crampy.:sad:
i have had odd bits of cramp but never anything like this in all the 12yrs............and no,i have done nothing out of the ordinary or been laid in a odd position.
happy anniversary!..............i hope its not a new chapter of progression and a continuing symptom to come.
somebody shoot me now!:roll:
