What Causes Leg Weakness When Diagnosed With Scoliosis?
Well I have gone to my family doctor and am low on Potassium and Electrolytes so been taking Potassium vitamins or supplements drinking Gatorade. I have scoliosis which is getting worse it seems every day. Right now I am wondering if I have arthritis in my hips--the worst thing is both my legs don t seem to have muscle strength. My knees have collapsed on me a few times hard time standing from a sitting position-- eating habits need to be worked on--- trying to figure out what it could maybe be - thought maybe a pinched nerve my feet are pretty much numb most of the time
