Advice & Tips
Since being treated for CCSVI I'm not as reliant upon my scooter. I'm able to walk more and more. I still use the scooter for long distances, but fully expect to stop using in 6mths after PT and exercise.
The Pride-Mobility Go-Go Ultra frees up your hands for carrying stuff, plus it has a basket to carry even more stuff. The seat swivels 360 degrees, making transfers very easy if you still have use of your arms. It's a three-wheeler, so you can get into and out of just about any corner without much trouble - unless you've always been a crappy driver!! You should be able to get one of these for around $1000. And if you weigh more than about 180 lbs, this is not the scooter for you.
