I am now three weeks into my physiotherapy program. It doesn't seem to be helping me too much. My legs are stiffer after the exercises than they are before, and I am finding the exercises more difficult rather than easier, which is what you would usually expect when doing exercises. I have been seen mainly by a physiotherpist assistant twice a week, and doing the exercises on my own on days he doesn't come in. He has ask the physio to reassess me as it seems to be doing little good. In fact walking is more difficult for the rest of the day after having done the exercises.
How do others who have a diagnosis of PLS and have physiotherapy find it, does it help or do you find it more difficult to do things after the exercises?
I had a phone call while writing this, to offer me an appointment with another neurologist next Monday. Hopefully my physio might be able add something to the discussion! I must try not to get my hopes up as I have done in the past. I might still be non the wiser about what I have once I have seen him. Hopefully he will ignore all the 'conversion disorder' crap in my notes and look at me objectively.
