My neuro said that my insurance (United Health Care) does cover it, we'll see how much. Yes, I am working, for Honeywell. They have even set me up to work from home a couple of days per week - especially good when the nasty weather hits. Stamina is a real problem for me, I poop out after lunch usually, I gotta push it. In the evenings I just flop. Barney

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. The jolt was surprising at first but not that bad especially knowing and seeing how it could help you not drag your foot. Good luck on that! I'll be anxious to hear how it works out for you!!! I admire the fact that you are working! I tried but just couldn't do it. I just plain didn't have the stamina to do a good job. The clinic was so wonderful and would have let me continue but it wasn't fair to them or the staff. It was the right decision to retire. Please take care!! Jeanne
