A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

One day last week I asked my attendant as usual to clean my eye glasses before putting them on me. They were still really foggy...as an artist , I really rely on my vision, so he cleaned them again .

Does Risdiplam Cause Constipation Or Acidic Stools?
A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

My daughter has been dealing with constipation lately. Wasn’t sure if it is Risdiplam related or not. When she does poop and it’s soft it burns her bottom. She will get a raw butt quick. Any suggestions on how to help soften her stool? She turned one in December. She can eat soft solid foods by mouth and drink liquids by mouth. We have a gtube but do not currently use it.

Clipping Fingernails
A mySMAteam Member asked a question 💭

I am interested to find out what everyone does regarding having their fingernails clipped. I struggle with this because I need help doing them, and it's hard for someone to do them. I often end up with cuts on my fingers, and I do not like getting them cut. I always have long fingernails because of this, LOL. Any good best practices that anyone has come up with? I can't stand this. Did I mention that?!
