Thank you for the feedback. It is comforting to know that I am not the only one. I feel kind of silly carrying the canes, on the other hand, I look even worse when I have an incident and am doing my best not to have face meet pavement. I stumble, weave and sometimes have a grimace on my face because walking is taxing.
I am so imbalanced i dont find words.sometimes i feel i have eggs under my feet.i dont know how to handle it neither
For the last 11 plus yrs I take my cane everywhere...I find that it depends on my day if or how my legs will be, let alone my balance or dizziness, that is not even an issue as a cane can not help with drop attacks, or all balance issues...if the cane is on the left and u fall toward the right, it will not be of help.
But I do find it is best to always to have it with me ...JMHO
There is days like that! I have mine to!
I feel embarrased during those times because I look like I am drunk.
It takes me forever to walk up/stumble up my stairs as well.
I keep a can with me in the car.
But honestly, I should take one at all times.
I just get so proud of the times when I don't need it and feel that I can at least look normal. But safety should come first.
Thank you for reminding me.
