I have just done my first run with Jo Whilst it was good. I admit my run was more a very fast walk but hey ho it's a start.

First and foremost well done. Actually it has been proven that run/walking in intervals gets you fitter than just solid state running so there's nothing wrong with that. I had near fatal VM in 2002 and had 5 years away triathlon to let the injury to my brain settle down. I started back in 2007 with a very slow and painful jog but since then I have completed many triathlons including 3 half ironman races so from small steps success grows. Patience is the key though, don't do too much too soon and only increase your distance or time by 10% each week otherwise you run the risk of injury or relapse. Well done! though :-)

Please give my daughter's story a read on this site. Rosie S's Story. Here lies sugnificant success (from what we know so far), for complete recovery from VM!

She suffered for near on two years before discovering meningitis now, subsequently trying cranial massage by visiting an independant cranial osteopath in her area.

It seems the key, and recent breakthrough, is releasing the spinal fluid which VM leaves a blockage for...and enabling it to flow again through your body, particularly your head.

There are some on this sight who have now given it a go after reading about it, and after just a couple of sessions, felt considerable relief.

I the last few weeks Rosie and I have been contacted by the media, news papers and radio to tell our story of this potential breakthrough!

We now feel we want to help as many poor people who have suffered this dreadful illness for which before now seemed there was no light at the end of the tunnel.

Good luck and please keep posed how you get on if you try this amazing treatment. Rosie coupled this with acupuncture, having alternate treatments once a week, now a couple of months in. Xx
