Can you tell me what kind of non weight-bearing exercises you do? I need to do them also and wondered which kind you did. Thanks, Janice ----- Original Message ----- From: Cossy Hough To: C E ; [email protected] Sent: Thursday, April 23, 2009 8:11 AM Subject: Re: [TMIC] Mayo Clinic
I went to Mayo in Rochester about 5 years ago after I continued to have intermittant weakness. I was just getting really frustrated and didn't understand if I had recurrent or what. I also had some other issues (fertility, etc...) so I wanted a comprehensive look. The visit changed my life. I got a ton of info, was tested and looked at and just given peace of mind that I wasn't recurrent but just TM and needed to step up PT and non weight bearing exercise to build strength. I was told I did not need steroids every time I got weak, as well. About 14 months after my visit, I had a baby. My stength overall is so much better but I still have to pursue non weight bearing exercise constantly or start to slide a bit.... Good luck!

If you did, what was the issue that you went there for and were you satified with the outcomes?
