I just got home from physical therapy, which I started two or three weeks ago. When I first started, I couldnt lift my right foot off the ground, and HAD to use a cane to walk across the room. My left foot could barely come up off the ground. I wasnt driving my car at all.

The whole not being able to really lift my feet up was making it really hard for me to put pants on. Still having a little problem getting my right foot to find it's way thru the pant leg, but at least I can now lift it up to get it to the pants leg.

I think the physical therapy has helped a lot, even tho I've only been doing it for a few weeks. I can walk across the room, with a limp, but without the cane now (unless I get really really tired or overworked, and then I need the cane), and I can lift my feet up off the floor if I'm rested...oh, and I can drive my car again. (YAY!!!) My car is a manual transmission, and I'm not having a problem driving it now other than getting in and out of the car.

I think maybe my flare is letting up on me a little bit, but I also think the physical therapy is helping me a LOT.

Maybe you can get your doctor to Rx some physical therapy that could help with the weakness that you're having?
