Have a look at MS Society Queensland website there is a story about a device to help walking, hope it may help!

Jules - We have discussed the FES (functional electrical stimulators) see Medical Devices http://www.thisisms.com/forum-38.html

There are a few of us who use these devices: Chris and I have the WalkAide --- Marie just recently purchased the Bioness 300

Jules - hey, no reason to say "sorry" - just thought you might be interested to know that a few of us are using them and that if you have any questions, be sure to ask.

I would appreciate updates on the walking devices thread in medical devices...are they helping? Which is better? What are the problems? Are they worth the money? People post a bit and then you never hear anything else about them.

Any time I see something I think may be of help or interest I will post.
I have a lot of walking problems but in limboland still. I am unable to access help of any kind, just suffer apparently.
