Ok I've never used one. When I had big problems with a knee replacement (It
got badly infected) I was either in a wheelchair or on crutches. I don't
remember what we ate much because I was on heavy meds. I could get around
the house on my crutches though. I must ask DH what we ate and if I cooked.
Remember though, I didn't have the underlying problems that Janet has which
might make a considerable difference.
