Musings from Toronto and the Chantix experiment

It has been a while. I just realised that there are some reactions to my postings. However, I do not know how to get back to them without an email address. I am geting quite dependent on the power chair. I use it extensively outside the house. Since I do not have a car and have stopped using public transport, the chair has become my main means of transport. I thank the city planners for making Toronto fairly accessible.

One thing I must report is my failed attempt at using Chantix for my ataxia symptoms. I have been reading some reports about the drug helping symptoms. So I got a prescription from my doctor and tried it. Unfortunately, it had a very adverse effect on me. I felt quite unwell with a complete lack of balance. So I stopped after 2 days. Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
