Didn't think of doing something like that. Between compression from the knee down and maybe the compression stocking, I will get some help.

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.

Janice the one problem I have with my feet is that once in a great
while I do get a spasm in the left foot where it hurts like a charlie
horse and the foot turns in.  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

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.    Have any of you had
this problem?     Really looking forward to summer to wear sandals – don’t
think there will be a problem then.
Is strange that after all these years that this problem would show up.

Thanks,
Janice
