Does anyone know what the rules or criteria is for a scooter for people who 
have difficulty ambulating. Art is 80 and has a TM diagnosis for about 3 years. 
We have Kaiser coverage. He was denied.

  [TMIC] immune system...               [ sal r <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ]
I can walk in my house because I feel very secure and know where the handrails 
are or grab a chair. And I use a cane when I go out with friends. They always 
take my arm.
I cannot walk in the “dark”. I must see my legs in order to put them in the 
right place.
I must sit down to pull my sweaters over my head. At any given time I have no 
idea where my legs are, sometimes while lying in bed I could swear they’re 
moving… and I look down and there they are exactly where I left them! I did not 
begin walking with a walker till three months after TM hit. 
I am also one of those eternal “sappy” optimists.  Believe!

Absolutely, you just gotta laugh….. cause sometimes it is the best medicine! It 
also takes a little while for me to get the message that my foot is stuck 
either under the chair, getting out of the car… Or even someone standing on my 
foot… it takes awhile for me to get the “pain” message!! But then it comes 
thru…loud and clear…

Hi Trudy,
 
I stilll have that annoying problem of not being quite sure where my legs are.  
Sometimes I wake up and think that they are all bent up at odd angles, or maybe 
that I have one tucked up under me or something, but whenever I throw back the 
covers and look, they're right where I left them.  Isn't it just the oddest 
feeling?  Kind of like *My legs!  My legs!  Where in the world did I put my 
legs?*   I've gotta laugh though, after all, it is just a little funny.  :-)

Trudy,
    If i do not look I can not tell if I am wearing shoes,socks or even 
underwear! I too cannot tell how my feet are under the blanket. Sometimes I try 
to move them and cannot because they are crossed and I had no idea! If I wake 
up and it is dark I will trip under anything in my way....my wife knows to keep 
the area between the bed and the bathroom clear.
    This condition certainly is a "trip" .

I hear you!! In the “true confessions” area …. I have been known to sit down on 
the “throne” and since I can’t feel the underwear… I sometimes forget I have it 
on…. nuf said…   J
