Dear Paul, Have you tried propping your legs with pillows? Happy New Years! john P.S. Don't let them get you down. Damn wounds begin taking over your life if your not careful.

Maybe like the ones they use for rehab. Q On 12/23/07, Paul Jacobson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, I'm an otherwise healthy c5/6 complete 43 year old male, 4 years since injury. I have a stage 3 sore on the outer side of either lower calf. I'm seeing a wound care specialist once a week and am using compression wraps to reduce the swelling..... its working. I also just started Celleration (3x/wk) to help debried and promote healthy skin growth. The problem is at night. I have spasms that prevent my legs from staying upright..... even with the blue boots. The consequences is that there is direct pressure on the wounds while I sleep. It's a bummer. Any help and/or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Paul ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
