Advice & Tips: The pump has been great. I will have the meds increased my next visit because I have been feeling increased stiffness. I go to the Mayo Clinic which is 1 1/2hrs. away, but it's worth the trip. I have to go every three mos. I go to the ALS clinic every 6 mos. It is covered by my insurance
