I have the same issue, Cindy, and I think it was my very first clear symptom (my knee's buckled and I went down regularly). There hasn't been any pain YET, but I can imagine that after a while of doing this a person could cause additional damage.
Perhaps it is just a MS-strength issue at this point, but it might be worth checking if there is something "fixable" going on too.

It's just the years of constant, unintentional stretching of the same muscles, a little farther, a little farther, a little farther... Like any muscle, every time it snaps back, it stretches a bit more. Since my leg is essentially dead weight now, I can't control it and it's to the point where it's practically bending backwards. The PT recognized it right away, he suggested the cage to me. I just wondered if anyone has tried one and whether it helps.
Sal, if we decide to go with one, they'll custom make it per a prescription. I think I'd be too chicken to just put anything on there without some guidance.
