Ampyra Benefits

Updated

I FIRST STARTED AMPYRA ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. I NOTICED RESULTS AFTER 10 DAYS. THE OVERALL STRENGTH TO MY LEFT SIDE WAS FANTASTIC, I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE MIRACLE I HAD BEEN PRAYING FOR. NOW IT SEEMS THAT INITIAL SURGE IS NOT THERE. MY LEGS DO FEEL STRONGER, BUT MY WALKING IS NOT ALL THAT GREAT. I LIVE IN THE M/WEST WERE WE HAVE HAD A HOT/HUMID SUMMER. SOME SAY HEAT IS A NEGATIVE FORCE TOWARD MS MEDS. DOES ANYONE SHARE MY FEELINGS....I WILL CONTINUE AMPYRA AND HOPE FOR THE BEST.

I HAVE BEEN ON AMPYRA FOR THREE MONTHS. IT IS GREAT FOR ME. THERE HAS BEEN A HEAT WAVE HERE IN CA FOR A WEEK. I AM HEAT SENSITIVE. USUALLY I CANNOT WALK. WITH AMPYRA I CAN WALK A BIT BEFORE I GET TIRED AND NEED TO SIT DOWN. STILL AMPYRA HAS DONE A MIRACULOUS JOB FOR ME.

I have almost the same story. Initally, Ampyra helped a lot in terms of walking speed. In short intervals 20-30 meters my time has fallen from 25 seconds to almost 12! Those promising results happened in June-July. Unfortunatelly this didn't last long. Now my walking is definetelly slower and problematic (I have fallen twice in my job..:-(). Anyway, I will keep taking it hoping for an improvement.
