@Fulltimesickgal Hi Lissa. I have a fellow #potsie here, along with my wife (also a Lissa), who has lessor, but similar symptoms. Aside from Rx, I’m curious what you find helpful? We have a long list, but always willing to share/learn. A recent one: #potsies here wear toeless compression thigh-highs and can’t function well without them, but recently got compression arm sleeves to help with days where arms are tired and need to write for school, etc. Helps a smidge some days.
