Neuro yesterday said it improves walking for those who can walk...improves eyesight for those who struggle and get fatigued at the computer.
He said that in aiding the transmission of nerve impulses, it reduces the fatigue that we get in just struggling to walk/function. I'm in...

Will your insurance cover it? My neuro says no and it is over 1000.00 per month.

Weird...my neuro thinks that insurance cos. will cover it...don't know where he gets that idea, since some insurance cos. won't cover a drug until it's been on the market one year.
We'll see...

I am not sure if my neuro knows what he is talking about or not. I plan to follow up on this after my MRI in April.
