In June of 2017 I broke my lift foot and injured the right one in a fall on the stairs. Two doctors were amazed there was no pain in the left foot/leg, but plenty in the right one! A boot was provided for the left foot and the right foot was strapped up.
I will concede that both doctors were concerned enough to request additional exrays that confirmed the prior readings. The left foot never hurt!
December of 2017, PMR diagnoses given. Within a month, the left foot started to hurt when I went to bed. It still gives me pain, not while on my feet.
Was this a precursor to PMR? or am I stretching?
You’ve clearly got peculiar wiring AltonBay. Sorry about your diagnosis, perhaps it was the dramatic beginning. PMR Pain is awful and bone breaks less so perhaps. Try to get a bone density scan ( DEXA) before agreeing to Alendronic Acid and it’s like. Make sure you take prescribed Calcium and vit D, vit K and Magnesium are useful additions too. Take good care and ask your questions here, there’s a lot of support and knowledge to be shared.
Thank you for your response. I have been taking Calcium and vitamin D and will look into your other suggestions.
