Kathy Jo,
I concur with the others, and want to remind you to have a doc check your back for scoliosis, as that canc ause back and leg pain. What you want is have a Physiatrst (doctor of physical medicine, in other words, a doc of PT.) check your whole body out. a general MD may not know the ramifacations of cp or sitting in a chair 24/7.

Subject: Re: pain clinics
I'd bet the pain/no pain thing is related to how well you're positioned in
your chair. Some days you might hit it "right," others you don't, or you
may shift over the course of the day. A good seating eval could help that a
lot. If I'm not seated well, I get low back and leg pain, and will probably
end up looking at custom seating with my next chair, which is due in
August. I'm considering an IBOT, if I can sell it to the insurance company!

Here's a link for National Seating and Mobility.

A friend sent me a link to a really cool "tricked out" chair. It's worth a
look, although I wish they'd shown it in action!
