I started out with left and in March had to get for my right one ( I’m still having problems getting it fitted just right). My question is, I still do not feel “stable” with mine and have to use either a Walker/Rollator or hiking sticks. Does anyone else use assistance with their AFO’s?

MemberMay 23, 2023 at 4:23 pm in reply to: Which ALS-related science, research, etc. topic is on your radar right now?Hi! I am “new to the club” having been diagnosed in Dec 2022. I tried Riluzole but it affected my liver so they took me off. I am participating in a trial – MN-166 obviously don’t know whether I have the placebo or actual drug. I have been on Radicava since Jan and have just started taking Relyvrio. It’s all I can do to get the Relyvrio down and keep it down. I’m not a listerine fan so I’ve been putting a peppermint candy in my mouth as soon as I take it to try and help with taste. Does anyone have any suggestions – or something that works for them?
