Guest guest Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 You have to decide if the benefits outweigh the risks or vice versa. I hope you make the right decision. > > having above catheter surgery under a ga this sunday > > any comment greatly received > > i am paranoid about the ga and possible exasperation of my ms symptoms > > regards/peter/london/ppms > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 You hold on with one hand and pull your pants down with the other. I wear pants with an elastic waistband. Forget zippers or buttons! > Â > thoery is you need both arms to get hold of the grab rails so how do you undress ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I have vertical and horizontal bars. I lean on the right horizontal bar and stand back up by pulling on the left vertical bar with my right arm and pushing up on the arm of the toilet with my left hand. I can use my legs more now than I have been able to in the past. Getting my pants up is harder than getting them down but I can do it. I don't have to go as often as I used to. I still have balance issues. My toilet is in a three-sided box inside the room. I drive my chair up to the toilet between the bars. It's easier when you have a system! > > yes i know the theory, if i hold on with my right hand i fall to the left as no balance as unable to stand > Â > elastic waistband trousers a big help > Â > regards peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
