Hello @rsb,

I would also like to welcome you to Connect. I am sorry to hear of this painful condition. I would also like to invite @annierae to join this discussion. In a previous post, she mentioned having physical therapy which was helpful. Has physical therapy been suggested to you?

Yes, I have sought out physical therapy at different times. It has not offered any relief from nightly leg and foot pain.

I am 77 y/o male. I remember having a spinal tap but it came back negative. (Oops) It was probably just before the vaccine. I got better and moved on. I was misdiagnosed as Parkinsons for nearly 10years. Fortunately, In the course of changing neurologist PPS was skillfully diagnosed on an EMG. (I don't have to take that medicine anymore.) I have always been active, running, cycling, etc. I am now where walking is very difficult. I am very discouraged with P.T. What's the point? Scooter shopping is next. I'm not excited.
