Thanks. I should be alright in the end. I’m not completely paralysed but I have ataxia, especially in my arm, which is now slow, heavy, unresponsive and wildly inaccurate.
I’m dyspraxic anyway so I know I can reprogram my brain through repetitive physical activity. I’ve done it before.
I don’t want to go teetotal because I love wine but I was drinking a bottle a day, maybe two, and often having a beer or two during the day. I’ve got plenty of scope for reducing my intake to a small, sane and healthy level. That’s what will undoubtedly make the biggest single difference to my weight.
