and neuropathy that's autoimmune can flare up and cause additional weaknesses. That happened to me in June resulting in a fracture, then the following month a dramatic break or two.
Only thing that's helped me in these instances is to work out with those Therabands and/or hand and ankle weights. Keep whatever muscle tone you can, and ideally either go to outpatient or get in-home PT to KEEP GOING! IF you lose that muscle tone? It can take MONTHS to get it back, and I'm speaking from experience...still working on it after 3 months! We tend to lose that tone much faster than 'normal' folks, for sure! I literally lost inches from my legs during my 'lay-up's and am learning to walk all over again!
Nerve conduction tests are usually the best indicators of function deteriorating.
Don't panic yet! Things can and do help at times! 's - j

Thanks! Luckily the weakness isn't so bad I'm falling. Don't tell me you are talking about EMG's? I hate them. At least the LP was just one needle.
