I have the same problem with slip-ons as Patti... I can't 'grip' flip-flops or slip-ons with the toes of my left foot anymore.
As for the spasms... have you tried a compression stocking? I wear one when I know I'm going to be out walking a lot (grocery store, mall, etc.) and it gives me so much more support and comfort for my weak leg. It's possible it might help ease the spasms - just a thought.

It goes all the way up my lef to my thigh. I can turn it back, but it turns again all by itself. I usually do what you do with a charlie horse, I straighten it out real hard. It hurts like hell, but it then goes away. Also I can't wear sandals or sliip on shoes as I can't keep them on my feet Patti On Mon, Mar 5, 2012 at 7:25 PM, Janice Nichols <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Guys, > > Would like responses on a problem that only recently after 5 years of TM > - has occurred. > When put my shoes on, my right foot (heel) spasms and makes it harder to > walk.
