[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2515782, member: 25851"] Once again, the day started badly by finishing off a box of cereal that I had bought for Em, but she decided she didn't want. At least it was wholewheat. 2nd meal today will be a beef and tomato ragout. It's already cooking, so I won't have any reason not to bother eating it. Might make some butternut squash mash to go with it, if I can be bothered. Having a bad day today - very shaky on my legs. That's partly due to over-use of them yesterday when I went to the chiropodist and struggled to climb into his treatment chair, but also because they are getting weaker. The chiropodist offered to try to give me a push-up but I declined his offer. I didn't want any man getting his shoulder under my backside to lift me. So I made a huge effort and climbed up myself. His chair looks pretty old fashioned - rather like a squarish 60's armchair but it is high up and needs the patient to climb onto a 15" high step to reach it. I actually called our physio department today and asked if they had a Zimmer frame I could try. They have left one at the hospital entrance for Alistair to pick up for me this afternoon. Just about finished the course of Steroid and antibiotic cream on my legs, but they haven't improved. That won't be helping the walking but I think it's actually my swollen feet that are making the whole action of walking difficult and sore, quite apart from not being able to push myself upward to climb stairs (or 15" high platforms).
