    Is the reason she is having trouble due to pain or stiffness? I have this problem and what I do, or somebody else does for me is to get a clean wash cloth or towel and wet it and put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds, then carefully (it's hot), place it over the area which is causing the most pain. It will take about 20 mins but it does work. Also if she could make it to the shower she will find that running very warm water over the painful area will help.

    She really needs to see a neurologist if she hasn't already!!!

    Has she been to be evaluated by a neurologist? Start there.
