Leg problem

[courtley]

Had two strokes eighteen months ago. Doing fine except that now and then when it is cold my left leg decides to stop working. I don't quite fall over but it is rather embarassing. Still doing my exercises and thought everything was OK. Obviously not. Does anyone out there have the same problem.

Yes i sometimes have the same problem, also the top of my leg especially from the knee upwards goes cold and starts to ache. My husband cut one of his socks off and used it as a kneewarmer over my knee and it helped a little

Thank you Brenda - reassuring that s0meone else has the same problem. I have been rather cocky as I thought I was fully recovered but obviously I am not. But, one thing the strokes have not taken from me, is a sense of humour

Glad to help i have good days and bad ones but have returned to both craft activities that i had before my stroke, rather slow with everything but keep trying and the people there are very helpful
