Ann, Naomi, Gary, etc. My story is pretty much the same too. Was
"thunderstruck" Sept. 05. Still havent been 100% diagnosed but I am pretty
sure
its TM. Have gone to numerous neurologists - I dont know why. They dont
really do anything. I just figure there may be something new out there but I
will probably know about it on my own.
Also am mostly in a wheelchair but can drag myself around with a walker.
Fortunately I am in no pain but of course alot of discomfort - burning,
cold sensations, etc.
Thanks to one therapist and her urging and a good reality check I have a
power chair and do drive a van using my leg so I am pretty mobile.
Of course I do miss my tennis and golf but what can you do. Was told
today that I have worsening osteoporosis of my hips and I should do more
weight
bearing exercise. Thats a joke. If I cant stand how can I bear weight on
my legs. (I have been doing extensive therapy for the past almost 2 years
which got me where I am today but I guess my bones dont recognize that.)
Take care all, Rosalie
