Guest guest Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 To all, I just had to tell you all about what is happening to me. I started working with my total gym maybe a year and I am on baclofen 4 pills 10 mg for about a year. Any way I can do two of the exercise and I am on the intermediate level. You should see me push with my legs and I do the one for the arms. I stated PT on Tuesday and he said he had never seen such a change in me. Before I had to stop PT because I could not do anything. Now I can do all of the PT that he gives me. He had me to push with my legs on his hand and he was amazed at my strength. I could roll over from side to side and I could not before. I still can not walk but I can stand and also move my legs backwards and just started moving my right foot forward a little. You have to start slow and not move up to quickly. I started three times a week and only 5 time for a rep. If you move to quickly you will not move forward. This has taken me this long. I was DX in 1999. So please try this. If you do not know where to purchase the total gym go to google and type in total gym and they even have places where they sell at a discount. This is the best news I have had in a long time. I am so excited. Jane Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 Jane Anne: It is wonderful to hear your getting stronger, and I are so happy for you. Question to you and that is, you seem less stressful, do you think this might have help you? You have been under so much stress since we first met, I am just wondering if this may be part of it, along with all the other stuff your doing? Keep it going dear friend!!!!

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 Sandy I'm so glad he is progressiving positively. Isn't it amazing how much a glance or a work can mean in times like these? Ir anyone is trying to recover or rehabilitation I always give my philosophy. Five steps forward and three steps back is still progression. Remember that backslides can be expected but they don't mean defeat. Thoughts and Prayers Eva in WV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
