Hello,

I was just wondering, is anyone undiagnosed still, but already in a wheelchair or using a walking aide..?

Really would like a response.. thanks!

I am undx'd and bought a cane last month. I don't have to use the cane on a regular basis but do have days that it helps alot weather for a balance aid or the legs are too tired or painful to work right. I am learning that I need to take it with me to places that require prolonged walking, like the store for a just in case I need it precuation. Not sure if this is the level of walking aid you were curious about but yes I have one and am undx'd.

I've been on the diagnostic roller coaster for the past almost six years. Back in spring of 2009, my legs were so weak that I ended up buying a cane and had to use it for a month or two. I also had to use the motorized carts in stores because I just could not walk long distances. Since that time (and since starting on ALA, ALC, and Vitamin D), I haven't had to use a cane or the carts, except once when I was having bad spasms in my knee about a year ago, but that was just for a couple of days.

I am in the process of getting a scooter, and I have not been diagnosed. I just can't walk very far, and a lot of days, I'm just really off-balance. I plan to use it in the house, too, when I'm very bad.
