My insurance will only cover an eval by PT- not continued treatment. I have seen 4 different therapists in past 5 years- all with diff recommendations, dx, & advice. They seem like pretty genuine people that want to help w/ the info they are given. I don't mind going cause it's part of the process- they all have given me "at home" exercises to improve muscle function, coordination, dizziness, gait, etc but I have yet to find an exercise that has benefitted me worth the energy exerted. I am trying to stay positive because I truly believe that there is a lesson to be learned from everything as long as we look deep enough to find
Also, I split the Baclofen dose- 20mg 2x daily. Have tried it all at once & this way seems to be better as I am splitting doses of all meds at this point
