“You’ve got to take care of your back” chirped the pretty 20 something size 8 GP as I struggled to heave Paw’s wheel into a suitable position for her to examine him last week.
Yeah right, how? I was tempted to mutter through gritted teeth.
Seriously
Our wheelchair is not the heaviest but I don’t like trying to heave it into the boot. Hospital wheelchairs can be OK or they can be like a wonky supermarket trolley with the weight of an adult man in them.
Added to that I have to carry everything -bags of supermarket shopping from the car I go the house, move furniture for the (occasional) hoover. Bend down and pick up things for Paw you get the picture.
Already feeling a pain between my shoulder blades - lifting? and in my left hip (sciatica?)
Suggestions please!
