post tx balance issues

[babs824]

it seems subtle and may not be related but have noticed impaired balance after tx. i fell off my bike and broke ribs and i notice that i it is harder to do some things like pull up pant leg or stocking with out holding on to something. i am adding balance exercises to my gym program but wondered if this is just turning 65 and lying on the couch for 6 mos during tx.or if the meds play a role. i take only synthroid, nothing else.
i sure cant complain as i have had no viral load since week 4. wishing such luck to all, babs824

I am not sure about balance issues but I never was quite as clumsy as after the last go around with pegasys. I think it may possibly be related but just not sure.

not caused by balance altho i think i could have righted the bike if balance was better.
never had issues before except what u expect at my age. worse than years ago but typical for my age.
yes i saw stars but had on helmet. not serious.
about 5 years ago i broke collarbone and suffered concussion ie was unconscious in ski accident.
thx

Was falling off the bike due to balance issue?
Did you have the balance issue before you fell?
When you fell did you suffer any trauma to your head?
