mobility aid research is so hard agh
does anyone use a gait trainer or posterior walker for chronic fatigue? i pace around a lot and i can't stop (don't understand why, just can't), but i'm thinking if i could take some of the weight bearing off it'd help?
the conclusions i've come to are: the lifeglider hasn't got enough back support, the zeen has too much bulk in the back, and other gait trainers seem really complicated to navigate (buying wise) without a doctor's help and idk if they'll approve of me using one. seriously, if the lifeglider had a back of some kind so i didn't have to use my core, i'd get it. i don't think i really need the amount of support the more 'medicalised' (for lack of better word) ones have, like chest prompts, but i know my torso isn't really super strong and when i get tired it flops my spine weird if i don't have something to lean on.
if anyone knows of other types of mobility aid that allows walking without full weight bearing, i'd love to hear about them!!
(requirements: my arms are weaker than my legs so no pressure on the arms, my torso is kind of floppy unless i use energy keeping it upright, need to be in a comfortable walking position/not sitting)
