Well, that stinks.
I remember getting an elliptical several years ago and I could only do about 2 minutes and had to stop. My legs were like jello and so shaky.
My son hopped on and did 45 minutes straight!
I think not being able to exercise is what I miss most. Just to be able to take a walk around the neighborhood would be so nice. I could but it'd have to be with my walker. And it would have to be a very short walk.
But I know why I can't do it. This must be infuriating to have to wonder what the problem is. What testing have you already had done? Have they ruled anything specific out? I hope you get some answers soon.
