Hi ladies,

I have quite severe spd and have been refered to a physio but dont have an appointment until 13th april. Today I cannot weight bare at all, is it worth buying crutches or will someone be able to arrange some for me? Im completely at my wits end now and dont know what else to do.

Thanks

Go to physio or osteo first. It is a long time until your appointment.

You might nit need crutches after the appointment, they can help that much.

Try som private clinic, they should be able to see you next day.

You could try asking at your Gp for a referral for crutches to the red cross, I had SPD during two pregnancies and I was loaned crutches that way.
