Barbara, the first three MRI's that were done were when I was in ER and they didn't see anything. It wasn't until I got into Harborview in Seattle that the neuro found the lesion. None on the brain at that time and still no new ones on the spinal cord nor on the brain. Thank God for that..j

Hi, friend! I tried that walk aide out and the concept is really good but it was just too expensive ($4,000) and our ins. wouldn't cover it. Trying it out I could see how it did work and that was from setting the timing of the elec. jolt into the muscle that makes you able to take a real step.
