I'm almots 2 months into my treatment..no beefs its going pretty(this hour, this minute...lol)

As per Dr. B's protocal i am pushing myself to excerise...in tow months i've gone from waking like an 80 year old to walking briskly

Increase in muscle strength is my main improvement. Still lots of Neuro stuff though.

Anyway here's the question ...why can i walk a mile and half in 28 mins but i stil struggle to stand for more that 3-4 minutes without moving?

Anyone have experince with this?

Geneal,

No none of those issues...i begin to tremble. I equate it holding a weight above your head. eventually your muscles tremble. All my muscles do it...i can't stand for more than a few minues without moving..

if i was laying on the bed and using my arm to prop up my head it would start trembling in a matter of minutes.

i'm sure it will go away...just strange that my muscle stregnth has come back almots 15 % in two months but this stupid thing has not chnaged much.

It keeps me from taking on any real tasks around the house...and really effects my fine motor skills.

Dave, what meds are you on, it's sounds serious, maybe you should push your doc for IV Rocephin, I think I would. I was in your shape last year and the IV got rid of most of what you are telling me. Since then, I'm at about 70%, but feeling MUCH MUCH stronger, I am 44 and normally in good shape 6'2", 225 lbs....Rich
