Could they give you one of those walker things with tiny wheels maybe? My mum used to find that so much better than two sticks. In the end I had a small bit of toast and two mugs of tea as didnt have the stomach for even scrambled eggs.
I had a zimmer frame with wheels on the front 2 legs on loan from the physio department, but it was not helpful with only one hand able to control it for much of the time. Also had me leaning too far forward (I am wider than it so had to stand too far back). I do have a rollator but it has a similar issue, causing me to lean forward and hump my shoulders over it. Good if I need to sit down half way to somewhere though since it has a narrow perch to use as a seat. Too unwieldy to use in the house, though.
Tomorrow is another day and I hope you feel well enough to have something solid inside you. Maybe an early night would help? That's what I am about to do, took painkillers some time ago but forgot to note down when so don't dare take any more and am feeling shattered, so might be able to sleep.
