unable to non weight bear- advice needed

[jane167]

Hi again,
Have found a mobility product online- a kneewalker, looks a little like a child's 4 wheeled scooter, has an elevated platform along which you rest the lower leg and handles for steering. There is a video clip of it in use on the site.
I don't know how I will get on with it but as weekly rental is very reasonable am willing to give it a go.
Will let you know.
Many thanks for your advice and prompt replies.
Regards
Jane

well, my knee walker arrived and it really is very good, my artificial knee gets sore after a while but this 'scooter' is far more helpful in my predicament. Apparently it's been available in the UK for 2 years and must admit to feeling disappointed that the physio at the hospital was not aware of this product.
thanks for your support
Jane
