re: OT doctors, need you help

Not a Doctor, but it could be sciatica for the weakness in your legs.

About eleven years ago, I had some pain and weakness in my legs. I could barely walk and the pain medicine made it worse.

They gave me some Lyrica and it helped, but made me more clumsy. So eventually, I started relaxing back and decompressing my back when I slept with my legs up, slowly the pain went away and did not need surgery. Before going this route, a doctor I saw, actually wanted to cut me right away.

Fast forward a few years later, another doctor was looking at my veins in one of my legs. They noticed one leg was bigger than the other and diagnosed me with vericose veins, and I have to wear compression stockings.
