Hi there @galaxidi123. So sorry about this recent turn of events. Big hug for you from me. Regarding the crutches, all I can add is this. Afterfinishing the Paclitaxol part of my chemo, I ended up with severe peripheral neuropathy. I also have other pre existing medical conditions which result in my havingvery stiff and painful joints, particularly my knees. If I can't see my feet, I have no idea where they are and end up "scissoring" them,with consequent fall risks.Considering I also have severe osteoporosis, and am now on Letrozole, big danger for fall fractures. I have already had two spontaneous rib fractures (different ribs), without any falls or bangs. Got a few after a fall too. I now use a wheely walker, and I have to say, I have found it a bonus. I put all my stuff under the padded seat, and it allows me freedom to go where I want. It also alerts oncoming pedestrians to be careful when they walk around hypnotised by their mobile phones and not looking where they're walking! I would imagine crutches are a pain in the behind and much more clumsy than the walker. I'm 59 and feel my dignity (what's left of if after this shitfest), is less important than my safety, so Granny Walker it is for me!!
