Is It As Uncomfortable Using A Mobilty Scooter As I Imagin?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I am only 33 and my partner keeps telling me i should rent a wheel chair or ideally a mobility scooter for days when we both know i will over do ut and be in loads of pain such as wondering around board game shows. I cant seem to get passed how much like a fraud i would feel though if i did... any advise on this? Thank you!

I have had to use them at stores if I have shopped to much it’s kind of embarrassing but I’m the one who knows how I feel.

I have had fibro since i was 21. I used the electric wheemlchairs to go thru stores for several years. I have been able to walk niow pushing a cart but when i feel i need to, i will use them. I did get strange looks on occasion but ignore anyone who looks at you or ssys anything to you. They are not the one that is hurting. I hope this helps.
