Slipped

I just lost my footing on the stairs and slipped down the last two. Thank goodness I was holding on to the rail and did not fall. I just got rug burns on my feet.

And I was very shaken, thinking what might have happened if it had been at the top of the stairs, or if I had not been holding on to something. I have had difficulty going down stairs for several months, but I guess I thought I was impervious to falling or getting hurt. Even though I know that falls are a big problem for people with MS. And even though a neurologist told me just a few weeks ago that I might want to use a cane for stability while walking.

I want to see a PT.
