A member asked:
What would cause the legs to not want to hold you up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots of things: The list of possibilities is quite large. First is your problem due to pain? Weakness? Loss of sensation? Loss of balance? Then start thinking of the circumstances in which this occurs. See what often leads up to it. Do you fall? Can you prevent it? Then explain this to your doctor, who in turn may be able to help you.
