Thank you. Does anyone have an ultra lightweight wheelchair? I have an appointment with my neurologist at the end of June. I am unable to go out except for picking up a few things at the grocery store. I cannot go shopping, go to school, or work. I cannot stand for long periods of time. This has been going on for a couple of years, and I have not improved significantly with treatment. My quality of life has diminished. I have also consulted a specific forum, http://sci.rutgers.edu, which is for people who use wheelchairs. I am thinking about either getting an Icon Wheelchair (fully adjustable rigid chair) or a TiLite titanium wheelchair-Tilite ZRA or TiLite TR3. With the TiLite wheelchairs, I could use a power assist, such as the
to help me get around. It could get 10 miles of assisted propelling, which would be great with the orthostatic and heart rate issues. Medicare even reimburses the Smartdrive, under certain conditions.I really want to go back to school but I don't know how I could do it without a wheelchair.
