Default Aarcyn,

I too am using a rollator now, especially when I leave the house. At least at home I know all the places I can hold on and catch myself. But I just can't keep my balance anymore. I have to use an electric cart if I go in a store.

I am going to give myself the rest of the week and see how it goes. Then If I need to I will definitely call my neuro. I just know my only option he gives me may be steroids and I only want to do that as a last resort.

Basically, it sucks...doesn't it. I'm always telling myself that things could be a lot worse. And I know they can... many patients and caregivers on NT can attest to that. But some days it doesn't help much when we are going through what we are going through.

Kinda a gloomy day for me! Thanks for the input.
