Finally after nearly four weeks in Hopital I was home, which was wonderful. I was looking forward to improving my diet and building my self up again. I was also keen to get started on research as to what had caused my Ulcerative Colitis. There was one initial problem, having been in a Hospital for 4 weeks in bed and being quite weak I was shocked to discover when I needed the loo and had to go upstairs that I couldn’t actually walk up stairs anymore ! My legs were so weak that I literally couldn’t lift up my feet to climb the stairs – I had to crawl ! Also my right foot was droopy – I was unable to lift my toes up. So the next day I went out for a walk to try to begin to build myself up again, and I fell over flat on my face. It was the foot that caused me to trip over and it also meant I couldn’t drive anywhere. I thought it was just lack of use causing it but I later discovered that the foot problem was in fact Toxic nerve damage caused by Ciclosporin. Fortunately I saw a very good osteopath who helped to get it moving and I was lucky that when the doctors found out they stopped the cyclosporin and it started to improve some more. Eventually it recovered but it took another month and half before my foot was fully functioning again, I was lucky that kind of thing can be permanent.
