I seem to be the resident expert on falling. Before getting on mestinon, I fell quite often. I could never figure out why I fell. Once was down a flight of stairs. I just couldn't understand why I fell. Looking back, I think that my leg muscles just quit working. I let my dosage lapse while riding my horse and that didn't work out well. I went totally paralyzed and fell off.

My falling has been due to muscles giving out without warning. Now that I am taking mestinon and that I am aware of it, I haven't had a problem recently.
