This is a nice story - this guy was diagnosed the same time as me (4 years ago). It was 27C (80F) in London yesterday. I went out for a 30 mins on my mountain bike - something I couldn't have done 2 years ago. Not quiet as impressive as winning a golf tournament - but being almost back to normal is priceless.

Ian,
The fact that you are almost back to normal is wonderful! I had been wondering how you were and was going to post the question to you.

GWA,
Thanks. You deserve another box of chocolates. Send me your address as I've probably deleted it.

Thanks for the info Ian! Good to hear that you continue to improve.
Even though it doesn't always provide instant results, or what a lot of people might consider "miraculous" results, I'm still convinced that "rebooting" is far and away the most hopeful advancement in the long history of MS research.
At this time a lot remains to be proven about rebooting and what happens afterwards and it's still easy pickin's for the pessimists but it seems certain that right now we are seeing the directions treatments of the future are going to head.
