Scott, and everyone else really.. I just can't believe how tough you have it. The things that you and we have to go through don't even seem possible.. Scott you seem to have the worst nightmare...

I am so sorry to read these posts. What we have to go through is unbearable at times. I have no answers for any of you. No one can, especially people that have not gone through it. I can only say I...

I have to be extremely careful about what I eat. I cannot eat most of what you sound like you can eat. If pizza with lots of cheese is something that causes you problems, alter it. It's most likely...

I have wondered the same thing.

quad coughing has been by far the most effective for me. It's the only thing that really clears me when I need it. It's a lot like the Heimlich maneuver but from the front.. Somebody should know how...

This would be so wonderful. So tired of not being able to clear my lungs..

I use wearable therapy from a company called Axiobionics. It is more expensive, but much better than the ordinary stick-on electrodes. It's not even close!

Keep it going, keep it going! It sounds great.

I have had one for eight years now. So much better than intermittent cathing, but I still battle with UTIs. I drink over a gallon of water a day and do all of the rest of the things to avoid them,...

Those products, at least the smart e pants, look similar. I know these are available right now and work great. Not to mention, that these are custom fit to your individual body, and personally...

They are pretty expensive unfortunately. My shorts were $12,000. I do think they were worth it, and I was lucky enough to have fundraisers that paid for them.

Wearable Therapy
After eight years of being a quadriplegic, my muscles have atrophied to about nothing. This of course does terrible things to my overall health. Pain in my shoulders and joints,...

Always nice to see work being done. This is a different approach than most of the latest ones. I hope they continue to research it.

This is great information to have.. Thank you. I'm always worried my bed frame is in its last legs.

That is awful! I have one bad one right now that is turned into osteomyelitis. Surgery next week. I have been battling them for years now. I have no answers only sympathy. I feel like I'm doing...

I am a C-4/C-5. I have battle sweats throughout my time being a quadriplegia. This sweating is always because of something bothering me. Lately it's always my pressure ulcer, but it could be a UTI,...

Thank you for sharing. I still can't decide on this one weather to get it or not.

This is awesome! Keep it up, and thanks for sharing.

Mike, thanks for putting all these together! A little bit of promising news is very nice to read every now and then. As a C–4 complete, the ability to grasp anything would be a dream come true.

oh yeah, I know it is certainly not The Answer by any means. Just one more weapon in our arsenal to try. I have still gotten UTIs using them. It is just a constant battle!

I have had no luck with the above links finding a contract example. I tried sending personal message also to the person above offering one. Does anyone else have an example? We are building an...

I am in the same boat as you. I have had countless UTIs in spite of doing everything I'm supposed to. I also use a 22 French suprapubic catheter. Very frustrating. Right there with you! One new thing...

It is nice to hear promising research going on, and even more nice to have the one administering it communicating with us! Thank you Dr. Silver and keep up the good work!

This does sound pretty amazing. More, more, more!

Thanks Grammy
