I have been in a slow but steady decline since around October 2015. I was happily walking my dogs 2.5 mi/day & now I can't. I tried last Friday night & by Saturday morning, my right quad muscle (muscle right above the knee) was SOOOOOOO swollen with the deepest of bruise on it...all from over-doing it.
Ive been feeling SO blahhhh & I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis in late March. Last Friday, I finally got fed up with just lying in the bed all day & I spent all Friday up doing stuff I need Ed to be doing (including walking my dogs 2.5 mi) & I ended up having to go to the ER on Sunday because my right thigh hurt SOOOO badly...While I was at the ER, they checked my CK enzyme (enzyme responsible for muscle destruction) & it was high; meaning the muscle is destroying itself. Im so scared. I'm at the point, I fear I'm gonna have to use a wheelchair just to get around.
For those of you in wheelchairs, what was the final push that got you there? Did your muscles hurt when you walked? Did your muscles totally give out on you? What was it?
Thanks!
