balance problems

Posted , 2 users are following.

i have always been quite clumsy but i have noticed i have been getting really bad lately.

from around september 2020 i noticed i would stumble as i walked, or i would walk into things. it has now gotten to the point where i stumble every time i walk, i'll walk into things constantly, and i have even lost my balance a few times and fallen. at points i feel as if my legs are completely stiff and i cannot walk at all, i also find it difficult walking down stairs.

my gp ran tests and said everything was normal but i feel far from normal, i have started developing anxiety going into places now as i have no balance, i have even fallen into people.

any advice would be greatly appreciated

    I know that anxiety can cause an off-balance feeling for sure. what type of test did the doctor do? Just blood test?

      they did a blood test and also a physical exam to test the strength in my legs
