Robert,

I recommend that you consider more rigorous types of exercise than those you described. Such as swimming or hiking, cardio workouts, machine exercises, or group exercise sessions of any type. As many of these different types of exercise that you can engage in. I'm 83 and keeping the body in shape is a necessity, even without Clippers. The more and different kinds of exercise I do, the better I feel and the better is my balance and normalcy.

Are you considering changing medications to get off prednisone? Your neurologist should be exploring or suggesting this as a possibility.

Finally, consider finding a rheumatologist who is familiar with Clippers. Part of a rheumatologist's scope of expertise is helping people with auto-immune problems, so they may have experience with the king of symptoms you've mentioned that stem from demyelination disease.

Glad to see several people weighing in on your post!

Don
