I have osteoarthritis, RA, and Psoriatic Arthritis which is rare and from my neck down to my hip has spurs, etc and I can walk but after a short while I'm bent completely over and my back hurt along with my hip. The regular walker has me bent over so this upright rollator will allow me to walk with proper body mechanics and I appreciate that because when you have multiple autoimmune issues and neurological issues you can gain quite a bit of weight and this allows me to go walk and if I need to sit before things get bad I get to exercise, get air, and sun....able to ENJOY my life! THANK YOU!
