Count me in too. Although, I don't need help walking, I can't really feel the bottom of my feet.

Last spring I was doing a course of IV solumedrol. Hadn't been able to sleep, took Two sleeping pills and decided (in my foggy state) that a shower was in order.

Wham, cracked my eyebrow bone on the bottom of the tub and couldn't move and I was being overwhelmed with water. My dear SO rushed upstairs. Note he has RSD and has been on crutches for 21 years. He helped me and lectured me about the joys of bathing not showering.

Showed up to infusion center next day with a very black eye. They sent me off to the emergency room, where I was repeatedly asked if anyone hurt me. No fracture, just a bruised ego, hip and eye.

It was my own pride that led to the accident. I sure hope that is a lesson learned on my part.
