puppylove Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 This summer when I was doing better I was able to walk around a lake near my house with my friends. I have been walking lately so I thought I would be fine. I was also feeling pretty good today. Well it's a loop and up to the halfway point I was doing fine. Then I started to get dizzy but I couldn't go home or anything because I was in the woods. I took a break and kept walking. I got incredibly weak and nauseous and was almost throwing up by the time I made my way to my mom's car. I was with my family and some friends so if anything really bad did happen they could have helped me. I am still feeling very weak now and was wondering what else I should do besides rest to help myself recover? Also, what other exercises are easier on us than walking?

anaphylaxing Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Yes I've heard that recumbent biking or and NON-STANDING exercise is a good way to start to get into exercise. I also try walking but can get pretty breathless at times. Also resistance/leg weights if approved by your doctor. Swimming also helps some.I don't have a bike but I'm going to check online for some sort of foot peddle or something that would be cheaper than a whole bike.

icesktr189 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 I have the bike at home and its still really had for me... I have passed out twice on it, but I think that is the closes thing you will get to excercising without walking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anaphylaxing Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 I just ordered a foot peddler exerciser on amazon. I'll let you know if it helps at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
