Are you aware if there are things that can be done (exercises?) without a doctor?
I have a chair with wheels and brake. I live in Norway, so we do get this kind of chairs for loan as long as we need it, and a new one when it need replacement.
I love my chair, I wheel around in the kitchen without needing to stand up.

And I make a lot of easy food, especially dinner that can cook in the oven when I rest and someone else set the table. We eat egg casserole at least one day a week, often with left over meat and veggies.
There are lot of food that You can make in the oven, and that gives You time to rest while the food cooks.
I also start with the veggies first, so I don't have to prepare those while the rest is cooking. A salad can be made several hours before dinner. Or veggies for boiling can lie in cold water with salt for hours before dinner. This way You split the work and can rest between the chores.
And always use a timer. I have a smartwatch, so it vibrates when I have to check the oven.
Our favorite oven food are;
- Egg casserole
- Chicken breast
- pork chops
- Dutch puff pancake
- Any kind of roast
