Hi Janice, I may have written about that. My left leg is 1 inch longer than the right. While in rehab learning to walk again,I was very unsteady. Unfortunately,I "locked" my left knee,which stretched the tendon,making the leg lengthen. None of the P.T. staff realized what I was doing. Now my gait is off because of the difference in the length of my legs. Cheryl in snowy Easthampton,MA

At the time, I had not heard of that being a possibility. I now know what whoever was talking about. My legs are still the same length and my spine is straight, but I am walking now as though one leg is slightly longer than the other. It is caused by the myelitis and they tell me with therapy, they can fix it - I hope. So, to whoever wrote in asking about that, I hope they got help for it. Something happens in the upper back hip area. Anyway, I am working on fixing this and hope no one else has this problem. Janice
