    I have an AFO for both feet.  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?

  • 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?

  • Maryann, I have noticed when I am taking the Radicava that I am a little more wobbly than normal.
