Hi guys!
I am looking for someone with similar situation. I feel lost and lonely in my situation.
Actually struggling with pp walking issue. Nobody can understand and I don’t blame anyone. But it’s hard.
Could you tell me what symptoms you have? How it started and where you are now?
One week ago I came back from hospital, and it’s so hard. I am three weeks postpartum.
I don’t know how to manage my life now.
I was told by physiotherapy to practising walking and standing up.
I am also after epidural and I was having inducted labour, I spend few hours on my bed numb, waiting for dilation. Pushing was fast, but position with leg up, after some job had to be done, because I have stitch.
Next day feeling come back to my left foot, I can band the knees but I can’t lift my leg up when in bed. Under my right foot is numb, I can feel temperature but not touch. Also less feeling in front legs and inner. Knees are the worst, they are numb and giving up. Weak musce tone.
I’ve seen physiotherapist in hospital, they practice with me standing up and walking and also stairs. I’ve also seen neurologist, he wasn’t concerned, in his opinion it’s just need time and practice. MRI clear.
At the moment I am able to stand up from bed or chair, slowly walk with stick, but knees can give up anytime and they did few times with me on the floor. I am stuck upstairs, I am not able to go down the stairs. My biggest fear is I am gonna stay like that forever.
Please, send me some hope, please!
