i'm sorry to hear you're going through this. do you know what's causing these feelings of muscle weakness and foot spasms? have you seen a healthcare provider to get a diagnosis? many conditions can cause muscle weakness and spasms. you should get a medical diagnosis to rule out any possible underlying conditions that require treatment such as a herniated spinal disc or low levels of certain minerals. in terms of the foot spasms these sometimes can be helped by drinking plenty of water. dehydration is a major cause of muscle spasm. you might also try eating bananas regularly to ensure you are getting enough potassium. (note: do not take potassium supplements. too much potassium can cause problems with the heart rhythm. ) wishing you well! dear elisabeth i see your nice answer i appreciate the quick response. to clarify send more data. i don't know if they will reach you when this is not the classic discussion forum i hope <positive_smiley> from my birth (1964) lead a normal life with a neurological diagnosis spina bifida (meningomyelocele lumbalis th12) without any limitations. up until about 10 years ago. well even i don't know if sb is the cause of my state now. since about 2004 i began to feel that great weakness and undermined near knees permanent muscle spasm tingling in the fingers and leg muscles with associated numbness on touch and impaired gait. since then seeking various possibilities of classical and alternative therapies physiotherapy herbal medicine eastern medicine and other procedures. conventional medicine which i turned in the beginning is unfortunately limited by knowledge of the doctors i contacted. i met practically all diagnostic metods (emr/ms tests/evoked potentials tests). all with normal results without any suggested medical treatments. they were truly the best of neurologists and orthopedic surgeons in my area. i got a recommendation which unfortunately does not solve consequence and certainly not the cause. operations in my case is not possible there is nothing to operate. spina bifida may be operable only at the stage of early childhood. and not in every case. i watch a lot of ways to improve my condition. it is already the lifestyle to which i came by this. potassium and other minerals in natural form as part of my nutrition. drinking regime i also consider important. foods generally are my basis for feeling good and respect our physical shell. my job is not easy even when i had to adapt the style of life and work (i am an active freelance architect) i try to exercise both physically and spiritually (taichi qigong exercises) it is a challenge for me to change. i'm interested in the opinion of someone who has practical experience with soimilar states. everywhere he is i prefer direct contact. how can mitigate or eliminate muscle scramps strengthen energy of legs and/or to increase sensitivity. someone with this condition specifically met and was successful. i really don't know to whom i can turn to. and it's very frustrating. thank you for possible reaction peter from prague heart of europe <positive_smiley>
what to do with feet muscle spasms? there is someone to advise any procedure for at least minimal improvement? . the whole area from the waist down to the knees is very weak. i practice a variety of strengthening exercises to increase energy do not lose hope. it's very difficult to function quite normally and still see that progress is deteriorating. there is someone with similar experiences who share them? or advise any applicable procedure for at least minimal improvement? . i'm open to all alternative methods which i know they work. just find the right.
