Definitely Harry Potter for me :] just brings back so many happy memories. I still remember the anticipation I felt before each book got released. :]

I agree. For additional balance and coordination work, the pt suggested that I dance. I'm going to get the video game Dance Dance Revolution, so that I can be ridiculously silly in private.

LOL DDR brings back some wanky memories :]

now to hurry up and wait!

I'm happy to hear that! That's only 2 months away I bet she's excited, i would be!

I'm ecstatic that this is covered by my insurance. I waited more than a year and was very surprised the referral was finally offered. I really hope that in the future access to rehabilitation for MS will be refunded and widely available. It is very hard o get a physical therapist at least where I l...

Consider doing some stress reliving exercises, All the best, get well soon

Thanks it's good to see some care and support.

This sure escalated quickly. I wish there was some full proof method of dealing with ms. =/ For now I got my eyes set on rehabilitation. Thank you for your feedback on stem cells guys but I'm pretty sure this is not an option for me.

Thanks for your replies. It's always good to get some insight from others. The links all of you provided were extremely helpful for me. Thanks to your feedback I finally have some reliable information to work with.

I'm starting to feel a bit down... I never thought it would be this hard to find a rehabilitation program dedicated for MS...

Daft Punk - Get Lucky anyone?

Hey all, I've been exploring various treatment options for ms and recently I stumbled upon stem cell treatment.

Recently I consulted a rehabilitation clinic in ...

BTW, I've been to physical therapy at our local rehab center pretty much every year since my diagnosis, and have plenty to say about it, but haven't had time to post since I work full time. I can't quite figure out what you're talking about with a month-long MS rehab. Never heard of that. The only ...

Wahls looks a little too good to be true. But as some of you said it's not just a diet. Hell it's even called a protocol. I for one believe that in order to sucesfuly manage ms we have to take care of it on every step of the way. We have to have the proper diet, the proper meds, the proper excercise...
