Hi.
As I have weakness in my legs, arms, neck, trunk, shoulders, I have many pains too because, I think, I put an extra effort over the group of muscles that are not under "a myasthenic effect". Is there something that helps the ones with the same problem? Any other suggestion? I hope everyone is OK (a good weekend to all). Bluestone |

Hi Redtail
Yes, massage is one thing that helps a lot. When I can, it's my choice in the physiotherapy. The pains in my back are making me crazy these days (and I'm still putting some resistence on the idea that I have to rest more). I'm not having strenght to be in correcct posture for my back or shoulders or arms or neck... and the result is pain and pain. Here the days are very pretty -- blue sky, the winter flowers, the birds thinking that the spring arrived. To contemplate nature is one thing that gives me some strenght: it's possible to fill the spirit with life and to forget pains. Hope you are feeling better! Bluestone |

I have to go for a massage every 2 weeks, too. Weak neck flexors result in tight shoulder area. And as redtail stated, my posture isn't the greatest either. It's hard when you have weak muscles.
