I have the Nintendo Wii and the Wii Fit for it also. If i'm being honest, I probably prefer the Wii on it's own rather than the Wii Fit but I think that is because I can't do some of the exercises due to pain and balance problems with my legs.

I like the Wii on it's own as it is a lot of fun and it also helps with my arms as I am keeping them moving and doing some minor exercises.

I have lots of the games for the Wii and they are all really good and it is nice playing them with my mum or any of my friends that come to my house when I am feeling up to it. My favourite game though probably has to be the Wii Sports as it is really fun and I miss playing sports now due to my health. The Wii makes me feel as though I can do some sports - even if it is in a virtual way!!

When I spoke to my Physical Therapist's about getting the Wii, they said that they can be really useful and that many Rehabillitation Centres around here use them for people who have just had a Stroke, Surgery etc to try and get them functioning again and have had lots of success with them. They told me to go for it and that it could potentially help with some of my balance problems. I have been on the Wii 'Gym' before and done some balancing exercises and I think it has helped me a little.

I guess everyone is different and only you will know what you can and can't cope with. I don't think there would be any risk in trying the Wii Fit as long as you are careful and follow all of the instructions given. Maybe talk to your Doctor also and see if he/she has heard of any MS patients using the Wii Fit and if so, how they have reacted?

I hope all goes well for you and have fun!!!!
