wanting to use mobility aids but feeling nervous
Hi! I'm a teenage girl, and like most teenage girls, i dont ever get taken seriously. I've had a moderate hip & leg pain for a while now. Problem is, that it mostly only occurs when i walk for more than 10 minutes, so its not constant or anything. I've been diagnosed with au/adhd and ibs, but not anything else. I really like walking... and i just cant!!!! The pain isnt even severe or anything, but my pain tolerance is absolutely crap. getting a cane or something would make people pay attention to me, and i dont want that. i just want to move freely. Same with my alleged pots. i collapse when i stand up 50% of the time, my legs are always blue/purple/red after i stand for a while, i lose my vision EVERY time i stand up after sitting down, etcetc. but literally none of my doctors gaf
I'm already a visibly queer, autistic and 14 yr old girl. I dont wanna get more shit than i already do. But a month ago when i hiked for like, half an hour i had to get carried back to the car cos i was crying my eyes out.... So, thats my dilemma. can anyone relate??
