I have been working with an exercise physiologist since November last year. It involves attending a gym twice a week and doing exercises for strength and balance. The results after 3 months were incredible I can now stand still as long as I want and my strength has improved a lot. How soon you can return to walking unaided only time will tell. Good luck

Thanks Tom, I’m doing two sessions a week at the hospital rehabilitation clinic and I’m starting next week ,with a private Physio attached to a fitness centre. 

Good wishes to you.
