My neuro told me that a pump is not a good idea. Because the stiffness I can
stand on my legs, even walk a little with crutches. Handy for going to a toilet
or take a shower. When a pump is installed, standing is out of the question, no
stiffnes and bad feelings is one, but no function is for me out of the question.
