thanks for all the input on my last post!

tldr; i’ve had one appointment with a CFS specialist who wants to phase out my use of mobility aids, but i find they improve my quality of life greatly.

i’ve been using a wheelchair (being pushed by someone else) for about a month and found it drastically reduces my PEM and allows me to leave the house more. however, i hate the fact that i have to make someone push me around all the time. so, i’ve been considering getting an electric chair via the uk Motability scheme as my PIP covers it

all signs point to thats it’s a good idea, apart from my specialists philosophy which leaves me very conflicted.

do i listen?
