So feels my left leg, at times.
![]() When I'm standing in my kitchen cutting up vegetables for supper (after a day of work), the last 2 nights, I've noticed when my eyes dart left or right quickly, my left leg feels like it just buckles under me, or 'gives out'. I said it's like the sensation of sand falling through an hour glass, or water falling through a faucet. I have to 'right' myself quickly. The reaction's like when you begin to nod off and come to quickly... kinda hard to explain. I can expect it now, but the first day I experienced it happening I wondered what on earth was going on now! I don't believe this is 'foot drop', but I can't recall how that presents exactly. This doesn't happen when I'm out walking, just when I'm standing stationary in 1 spot for a while doing something/trying to remain focused on task at hand, leg gives out over and over and over. Enough that I lose balance on the left side that I have to catch myself to avoid a fall. I've been getting cozy with leaning on the counter lately. My left side for my symptoms has always been my worst for pretty much everything. No shocker that a new symptom would show up on the left. Anyone else have this one happen before? Is there a fancy medical term for this? I'm going to my GP Sept. 10th, so if there is it may make the conversation with her a lot easier. Thanks folks xoxo. ![]()
