hello,
has anyone noticed that they no longer have muscles in this area. This also affects my Bowel movements as well.
It seems to be mostly on my left side.
would this be muscle wasting? something else causing this?

Hi cantgiveup
yes...
I have this too.
When my back allow's I do special excercises like sit ups and butty tukes to strenghten those muscles.
I think in my case it is a question of use it or lose it...
but then everyone's so different
take care dana

Before being treated for lyme I was losing sensation in that area. With treatment it is all coming back. Bringing circulation to the area (with exercise etc) also helps.
