Lovely to meet you, Sunflower, and I hope we'll get to know you better.
Warmest best wishes to you,
Richard
i am 42 with spastic cerebral palsy and up until lately have always walked on my own. I have now started to have lots of issues with mobility having to hold my husbands hand to walk because my legs feel so stiff and heavy they just don’t want to move no matter how much I try. I am currently taking oral baclofen but it seems to be doing nothing. I am thinking of talking to a Nero doc about the pump. Would appreciate hearing about your experience with it.
Have a great day
