    Clonus?

    I believe my last thread was closed. And for good reason. Been going through “symptoms” for about 2.5 years now. Twitching, cramping, etc...So, the longevity of it all does play against the odds I know that. I was told BCFS. But for the longest while now, a few months and counting, I’ve...

    What kind of AFO did you/ do you have?

    We have been talking about afos recently and I realized the type you have really matters. A couple of people talked about wearing a hiking boot style shoe with theirs for example which doesn’t work with mine because it has a protruding side piece. I like mine a lot. It is designed to keep my...

    Scared with family history

    After my fourth sleepless night I’ve decided to finally reach out. I am a 32 year old, seemingly healthy, mother to a two year old. At present I am VERY stressed.

    This is a question recently posed by another member in another thread. I thought it would be an excellent question for discussion, so I decided to open a new thread so we could get different perspectives. I am coming at this both as a PALS who presented with foot drop and also as a physician...
