Guest guest Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 That is great ! As soon as the summer is over I shall try and get hold of it too. The summer has to START yet though - a huge storm is taking place right now. I push myself up with my arms but once up I try and get my legs to take over. My CST therapist suggested standing with slightly bent legs as in T'ai Chi, pretending you have an anchor just beneath your belly button, drop the anchor - and you feel your shoulders relax and your posture change, then look up at the sun.

I started taking several kinds of enzymes again (digestive, probiotic, pacreatic, FOS) because I don't think I make enough yet with Prokarin. I started feeling weak/light-headed again at such a small dose and the enzymes have helped in that area. I can pick up an egg out of the carton, something I have been unable to do. I have hand strength and have for a long time but I didn't feel like I had any fingerprints, no traction. I lift my foot onto my footrest more naturally without the use of my arms. I do it everytime I get up. I'm standing more frequently for exercise. I hold the grab-bars for support. I use my legs to stand instead of just pulling myself up. I'm a long way from walking but I'm further away from being bed-ridden! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I'm not at the point of doing kneebends yet. I did catch myself from falling this week. Our summer took it's time to get here this year. It's hot today. Not enough rain, too much wind this spring. It's very dry. The weather does still affect me and it has for as long as I remember. > > > That is great ! > As soon as the summer is over I shall try and get hold of it too. > The summer has to START yet though - a huge storm is taking place right now. > Janet > > > > To: mscured > From: alpdesigns1@... > Date: Tue, 7 Jun 2011 16:44:10 +0000 > Subject: Prokarin Update > > > > > > > I'm still using 1/4 of a disc of Prokarin.
