    What a God send! My right leg is able to go a lot longer, I'm bending my knee now when I walk, and I don't feel as if I am dragging it. I am able to do a lot more because my stamina is soooooo much better. Everyday I feel little improvements. Now I just have to practice walking normal.

    I have been on Ampyra for 3 wks, and can tell a huge improvement. My left leg is not as numb as before, I hadn't felt my 3 middle toes for several years, now I can feel them no longer numb. My legs are not so Heavy in the late afternoon, can even tell an improvement in my upper arm strength. I would call this a miracle drug also!

    This is a update on my last post. I have been walking better but only when I use exercise as a combo. It took over a month to see any results. But I am seeing them.Anyone that thinks that this med. is going to allow you to walk as beforemust also try using streaching and if able to use a treadmill with handrails. I have a friend who also uses the med with 0 results. thanks to Clohe for the feed ba ... Show Full Comment
