Previously I have mentioned that whilst having had  my left hip replaced ( without cement = the bone was supposed to grow round the prosthesis and didn't- result left leg 2cms shorter than right one ) followed by right knee replacement and then subsequent scoliosis of my lumbar spine . Over the last 12 months I have now developed kyphoscoliosis ( forward bending of the spine ) . I have been fitted with a spinal brace which is not very comfortable . I have yet to try the CBD oil which I have purchased . However in an attempt to increase my mobility , I have bought a rollator . Initially I intended to use it out of doors , but I have found it very helpful indoors apart from the long handles which help me stand more erect , it has a tray to carry items and a basket on the front, plus a seat - a very useful and useful purchase .

@nessie1954‍ 

Hi Nessie, is it possible for you to post a photo of your rollator with long handles and where did you get it from? I am bent forward after my 5 surgeries and I walk with crutches outdoors but don't need them in the house. I do have a rollator but it does not help me to walk erect, it is still making me bend even after adjusting the handles. I would be grateful if you can help. Thanks.

@nessie1954‍ 

Hi Nessie

Thank you for sending the info re rollator. I looked at it on the NRH site and Banjo Rollator. It is very much the same as I have but without the basket or the tray. What I am after is a Rollator with arm rests. My current rollator has got adjustable handles, but it still makes me bend and I don't feel the benefit of walking with it. Hence I walk with crutches as they pull me upright. A while ago, there was one in Daily Mail on Sunday advertised for £ 70. Unfortunately I threw the paper away. I have Sunday Mail every week and will look for it again. 

Thank you for taking the time to send me all the info. It is indeed very kind of you.

Best wishes and Good luck to you
