[TMIC] TMIC-unidentified subject

[rn11...@yahoo.com]

Hi,
   My right leg is shorter since tm.
   It seems that while in rehab,I locked my left knee by hyperextending it. 
This caused it to stretch out the tendon and my left leg is now about 1 inch 
longer than the right. If they had given me a brace,this would not have 
happened.
   My left is the weaker leg,although if I'm walking it's the right one that 
gives.

Hi Gary,

Again, welcome to the TM Family. This is a great place to be. You will find some very kind and supportive people here. And we also have pretty good senses of humor! 

I don't know much about the pain stimulators, but since you have such unbearable pain, can't you leave it on 24 hours a day? Or if you can't, can you at least take some really good "drug cocktail" during the times you can't use the stimulators? I hope you have a good neurologist. There just is no reason to have to live with that kind of pain. And remember to ask your doctor about the new drug LYRICA we talked about.

Please let us know how you are doing. We'll be looking forward to better days for you! Take care
