A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

So I go to physical therapy 3 x a week n they wipe the tables down after every person. However they don't wipe the straps n balls etc down. I'm worried that someone sick will touch one n then I go to use it n I get sick. I can't get sick.
I was thinking about asking them if there's anything I can bring in to use to wipe them down so I don't get sick.
Any ideas or thoughts

I'm sure if you explain your worries to them, they will be more than willing to help out. I would offer to bring your own wipes, but I'm sure they will offer their cleaners. It would only take an extra minute to wipe things down. Especially if you have a poor immune system or get sick easily, mention that and I'm sure they won't hesitate to clean those items.

Just tell them you are not being fussy but your immune system is "extremely low" and I'm sure they will do what they can to help you.

@A MyFibroTeam Member yes! The hand sanitizer is an excellent idea! I always have some with me! ☺

I would take in your own hand sanitizer.I understand about not being able to get sick.I think we all can relate . when I go to drs.i wash hands,try to touch least amount of things possible n use sanitizer.An I never hang my coat with everyone else's.
