GMRPHRN Posted May 13, 2016 Author #26 Share Posted May 13, 2016 May I make an additional suggestion. I too have problems being on my feet for long periods. I got a TENS unit. One of those battery-operated machines that zaps you with low doses of electricity. My last cruise, we planned to visit Butchart Gardens in Vancouver. I knew there was absolutely no way I could do it without the TENS unit and even wondered if I could make it through the whole thing WITH the TENS unit. It worked like a charm! I even use it after long days when I get home from work and know I have a couple hours of chores to do and my back hurts. I just put that on and am able to do what's necessary. It really is amazing. I would suggest you forewarn the person running the metal detector at an airport or at security boarding the ship. They tend to get a little nervous when they see wires and such things on their screens. Thanks for your advice. I have been using a TENS unit at home but not yet when out and about. I may have to soon, though because I am having problems while working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
