Lasted about 2 weeks, but seems longer. Went on my last hunt yesterday and found just enough for a nice side dish to chicken stir fry.
Surprised myself at how long I was able to last on each hunt. One day I went out 3 times! One day I hunted for 2 hours at one time. Didn't weigh them this year but guessing I found about 4-5 pounds. It was 7 last year but I hunted a place I didn't know I wasn't supposed to be in.
What a difference it makes when hiking in thick brushy woods using 2 trekking poles instead of one hiking stick. I'm still wadded up like The Hunchback and dragging my right side on the home stretch, though. I don't think that will ever change.
After yesterday's hunt, later during dinner, my right hand sort of quit working. It was hard to hold the fork and I almost turned down dessert because I didn't want to have to struggle with the ice cream spoon. That's sad ~ almost turning down Edy's Orange Cream sherbet! But it's better today. Think I overused my hand; first holding the trekking pole for an hour, then chopping veggies.
Along with crediting the trekking poles, I also thank my chiropractor! He's done more help with my walking ability than the Ampyra. I can't say a chiro will help everyone, but it could be helpful. I'm not a chiro pusher!
