Reason For Not Able To Walk Long Distance And Fall?
I was diagnosed with inclusion body myositis via a muscle biopsy. I was sent to a neurologist because I had a stroke and shortly there after had to have a pacemaker put in. My neurologist basically is telling me good luck nothing much I can do for you as steroids did nothing for me. I find on here that I should be seeing a ruemetologist. I don't know what to do cause I tend to fall and cannot walk long distances at all.
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The decreased power in your leg muscles is related to nyositis. You are already under care of a neurologist. Do follow his advise by word. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal , drtayal72@gmail.com
