A friend with cfs/me and I were discussing cfs/me yesterday. She is able to ride her bike through the village with more ease than walking the route. Was thinking of trying it, bike is sitting in garage ready to go when i am. No hurry though.
I find walking tiring and then painful, not as bad as it used to be, I am happy with what I can do, and it is no where near the distance I used to do. Its like the repetitive movement with my hips moving my legs tires first, and if I dont stop to rest by sitting, the burning feeling in the calves appears. I have learned not to push through this, but to rest properly if it happens.
Do any of you find non weight bearing activity better than weigh bearing? And how? Swimming, cycling, horse riding, anything else.
Thanks SunnyInside
