    In PT, we advise having a stick on opposite side of your weakness. This way the stick can redistribute your weight off the weak side.

    I was looking for info on step-in shoes. I have worn clogs for a long time, I have neuro-muscular issues (MS and fibromyalgia) and I'm 67, so getting down to tie is impossible. I was wearing the clogs today and fell in the pet store. There was a PT in there who helped everyone get me up and she told me the shoes were part of my problem so I'm looking to try to find something affordable with the slide-in feature. Thanks for the review, this helps. :)

    I'm 78 with what I would describe as minimal arthritis pain (0.05 on pain scale of 1-10) but the pain is still present and noticeable. I now use solely a wooden walking stick rather than a cane. The walking stick keeps my center of gravity stable, while a cane subtly alters that center of gravity as a person subconsciously leans into the cane. Hugh Laurie, who played the role of Dr. House, turned to using a cane constantly to get into his role as an actor and it apparently ended up harming his posture. Also, I have tripped with aluminum walking sticks, but I have never tripped with a wooden cane. I notice that old people don't walk, they wobble; the walking stick keeps the gait stable. So yes, I would go wtht walking stick rather than cane.
