Stiff leg muscles

by wkinley, May 11, 2008 10:26PM
I don't know what this is related to but here is my story.  I was injured in an accident which caused me to sustain brain and back injuries.   It has been nearly 6 years fighting with WC over my conditions.  My leg muscles have been stiff ever since I left the hospital.  An EMG showed everything to be normal and MRI's of my back have not shown anything that could be causing the problem.  My neurologist is about to tell me that there is nothing left he can do.  Do I have to just give up or is there any other types of doctors I could possibly get some help from.  Would really appreciate some input.

I assume you had physical therapy for your back, but did they work on your legs?  Have you tried muscle release therapy (a form of massage) or accupuncture?  Have they blood work on you?
