So I’ve been online looking at walking sticks.
Every retailer is offering the same product but not the same price and not everyone offers free shipping.
My neuropathy is getting progressively worse.
I wonder if this is covered by Medicare hmmmmm

It should be covered by Medicare. All you should need is a doctor’s order for either a cane or a walker or a wheelchair or whatever. My understanding is you can get one if you want a walker and a cane you’ll have to pay for one or the other.

Also, don’t delay on getting yourself help. I can tell you from personal experience that a fall is difficult to recover from.

nothing drives the hot chicks into a forum faster than threads about falling down and walking sticks.

I think any forearm chick is old now too. I mean except for ER, but she's incredibly busy. I'm pretty sure it's just us old people. I'm cool with it, I like old people!!

Dammit Who, you may be an annoying, incoherent, inept, demetia riddled pervert but it's too soon for you too keel over. I don't have you on my 2025 bingo cart until October. Be more careful.

I went to my primary yesterday he prescribed a steroid apparently he’s concerned about about a bulge in my spine nicking the nerves .
Prednisone is working, I plan on making people miserable for a long time.
Sure going to miss Biker

Interesting fact 25 years ago the Florida had more magnetic imaging machines than the rest of the world.
I scheduled an mri yesterday and the earliest I can get one is the middle of March

Prednisone tore my stomach up. If you’ve never had it before be alert for symptoms.
