My husband saw a Foot Rocker on the internet and bought it for me. As soon as the rocker arrived I started to use it and within a week I felt much better. That was four years ago and I still have no trouble. If I feel a little pain I use the rocker straight away. I hope it can help your reader.

A McWilliams, by email I READ with interest your column on March 13 in relation to the article from someone who has a problem with their right leg. This sounds similar to my condition but of course may not be the same.

It took a while for the diagnosis as it is quite complicate­d but the result was myofibrill­ar myopathy with ZASP mutations. It is degenerati­ve but not lifethreat­ening.
