I wake up through the night with a percing pain in my knee like a tooth ach so I get many times like 4/4:30 AM because it won't stop!

I been going to rehab and told the instuctor that some of exercise is creating more problems than helping!

Before I would only get great pain when walking or standing, very seldom setting, now it interfers with quite time!

Westy, perhaps you should consider an "indoor scooter" to have at hand when your legs give out.

I spent six weeks a summer ago transferring myself, with my little arms, from my wheel chair to the potty, chair and bed. I had a pulled groin muscle and the pain was almost unbearable.

I saw those ads for the indoor scooters and I wanted one so bad, but, of course it was not an option for me at the time.
