| About | My name is Lori, and regular exercise has always been a part of my life since age 13. I developed M.S. in my early 20's which has slowly increased my level of difficulty with mobility. I have right-sided weakness, but have begun using a walker for the past 10 years which helps improve my balance and limit fatigue. I used to exercise about an hour/day, but over the years this has decreased to 15 min./day. I also have spinal stenosis so prolonged activity like walking results in severe leg pain. As a former nurse, staying healthy is important to me. My neurologist says that my habit of exercise has limited the level of disability from M.S. I look forward to meeting other people with these types of challenges, and see how we can learn from and motivate each other! |
