This is Simka speaking. And we should all listen.

Very good!
I agree with Dr. Simka`s words.

Yes Erika.

Not only he is trying to help us in the best way possible.
He also speaks out the truth with simple words. He is not afraid of "them" and this is very important for people who are wondering what they should do.

He is speaking perfectly.

By the way, i hope you are doing well friend. Take care.

Yes, I am fine. I will write a report about it in 2 weeks.
I have stopped to take my sleeping pills five weeks ago after 16 YEARS!
Of course, I feel much better. I am still not healthy, I still feel my MS, but oh boy I feel better!
I was riding a bicycle after 3 years yesterday! I still feel little problems with my balance - I think it is my left eye and my muscles are not strong enough, but I was riding more than 10 minutes not only 10 secondes!

I knew it ll come for you eventually. I just knew it. As i know that more will come slowly maybe but steady. But its better to wait from you to hear.

After all, we ll be here to talk about it

I must also add that you were a GREAT help for all of us when you came back from Poland. Please continue Erika.

We all know what a fighter you are. Keep going.

I ll be waiting for your update whenever you feel like it.

That’s just what I needed to read, thanks for posting!

I’m due to fly back on Thursday (Volcano permitting) and maybe have a stent or something, so Dr Simka’s words have helped ease my nerves about stents.

Glad to hear you are doing well Erika, you take care!
