Re: Re: Loss of muscle strength-Melvyn

I was interested in reading your post about "loss of muscle strength". One statement in particular caught my eye "sometimes my thighs get numb". My daughter(17) was diagnosed with PSC/AIH in 2005. Currently, she is doing fine with all labs being in normal range. She has always complained about one spot in her left thigh being numb and if it was bumped or hit it hurt a great deal. We brought this up to her doctors who really had no explaination for what was going on. She is very active with exercise and volleyball so I don't think she is losing muscle strength but this numbness in her thigh has us wondering if it is related to her illness. Has anyone else experienced this? It is not in both thighs or her whole thigh, it is just localized to one particular spot about 4x4. - mom to Caity(17) PSC/AIH 2005

Thank you , meralgia paresthetica could very well be what we are dealing with since the symptoms and site of numbness fit right in the picture. Thanks again for the info. .....I was thinking of last week, what is he up to these days and how is he doing?? - mom to Caity(17) PSC/AIH 2005
