Hi Anne
I have the loss of reflex part as well and have not had any problems with my
legs. I play sport 4 days a week and have not noticed any change in the
relfexes that I use. I also have the problem with slow focusing in my eyes
and have been told that its to do with the pupil as when you focus your
pupil constricts. I rekon that you've just hurt yourself. Take care.
