It has been a few years since I last posted on ThisisMS. I see some familiar names still on the site -- Hello again!
I noticed that no one has posted anything about the new technology developed by Cionic for its neural sleeve. The history of the company is fascinating, and I would encourage you to read about it.
Cionic's Mission: "At CIONIC, we're building bionic clothing that can analyze and augment human movement, enabling the body to move with more freedom and control.
In addition to being lightweight and durable, our system is driven by powerful algorithms that adapt in real-time to each individual's mobility needs.
And we have created open APIs that enable researchers and clinicians to create new solutions as easily as building an app for your phone."
I am currently in the "onboarding" phase for use of the sleeve. I am encouraged with the possibilities afforded by the technology for those with MS, cerebral palsy, stroke. Check out the website. If you have questions about my experience, please send them along. I am not affiliated with Cionic.

Cionic Wearable Neural Sleeve
Re: Cionic Wearable Neural Sleeve
Has this device helped you?
Re: Cionic Wearable Neural Sleeve
Yes, Elliot it has helped me. I was not a fast responder like some people -- it has taken time to adapt but I now can walk a mile with my neuro sleeve. I do use trekking poles when I am out and about in unfamiliar spaces or terrain. The sleeve really helps with the muscle fatigue...it is not unusual for me to record 4000-5000 steps with the sleeve. One year ago I would have struggled to reach 2000 steps. If not wearing the sleeve, I still require my light carbon AFO. I am getting ready to start my golf season...I will be trying the sleeve out on the golf course.
Hope all is well Elliot.
