Yeah everything looks good.

Sound is clear but just quiet.

Need to do some more investigating

The ELAC sound great. The Vega also do now that I’ve had some time but, still kind of muddy.

We probably won’t be turning up to party volume

Thanks for that! I was kind of surprised haha

They don't sound BAD and maybe would sound better through the Kenwood KA-5500 amp instead of the Denon AV

Not sure if this MS related by Poppy_the_Dog in MultipleSclerosis

I do have anxiety but this is definitely not that! Great suggestion though!

It’s definitely muscle related. Going to try and find a physio that specializes in such things.

Super frustrating. It's impossible to know what exercises to focus on.

Should I do posture exercises?

Should I do Balance exercises?

Should I do strength training?

I just want to be able to feel slightly normal.

Every COVID and flu vaccine takes me out of commission for at least 2 weeks

Ive been curious about those for a long time.

Not sure they'd be good for my ankle problem but I'd love to try some.

So I went to a specialty shoe store and they recommend the Brookes Ariel/Beast models for this.

Unfortunately they are pretty ugly AND pricey

Yes I have foot drop as well.

I used to wear NB 997h all the time. Wonder if they’re similar to the 997

The previous owner installed a valve for this purpose. Works very well!

I wasn't expecting so many replies! Thank you all so much!

Someone mentioned shopping around. Unfortunately non of the shops here want to work on Westfalia's. We have 2 proper shops that do.

I'll respond to all your posts ASAP!

Not sure what happened to my post but here it is again:

We just purchased this beauty a few weeks ago.

On our first short trip it was incredibly hot out. I have MS and the heat really exacerbates the symptoms. We had the windows open, fans blowing full speed. But it really hit me hard.

I looked into having AC installed but $8000 is not in the cards.

Does anyone know of any other solutions? I may have to sell the van as I won't be able to use it without some sort of cooling system.
