I try to use the search function as much as possible, but I have a few questions I don't see an answer for. The long Rilutek thread is no longer available to open for discussion. Is there a reason due to thread age, or was it for something else. All updates on the subject seem to cease on here at the same time. My reason for asking, is my neurologist is pushing my insurance to approve it.
Secondly, I need to determine if it's worth it to me to try it, as I am going down so fast. I can no longer stand using a Walker, and losing arm strength in both sides. I was still walking this time last year, and an EMG showed function loss in only my right leg at that time. I want to keep what functions I have left,, to assist my caregivers, but if the med is not effective for me, then I can forgo it.
