Have you tried Physical Therapy? That helped me. Leslie

It's hard to say, but I'm with Leslie. Physical therapy is a great place to start! I wish you the best of luck. 😊

if I practice my balance exercises, I notice benefit. Retrain .your brain-neuroplasticity. I’m currently in a balance research study and definitely seeing improvements 👍

I would love to hear the results of the balance research study once you are finished!

[positiveness in reply to Greentime]

That would be fantastic to hear about your results. Also, how did you get into research? Is it something anyone can do?

[Robsmom]

Ditto what everyone else said. I've had vestibular PT twice. It really helps.

Welcome to the forum, Mooker . Yes, you can do some PT. Also, you can go to the MS GYM (Trevor Wicken) on the internet. It’s free to sign up but they offer a subscription. You can go to mymsaa.org for more ‘ms’ resources. I look forward to hearing more from you. Keep Smiling

Welcome Mooker. I am another one that has found balance exercises helpful. They must be done where you can stop yourself from falling though.

[positiveness in reply to Greentime]

Yes, great point. I usually stand in front of my recliner, just in case I lose, which happens. By using YouTube, I go to the Wii fit balance exercises and try to mimic what they are doing on the screen.
