Start with what
matters to you.
Sitting and standing comfortably may be one of your priorities. Explain the tasks that feel difficult and what you would like to change.
Your clinician will need to understand your symptoms, medical history and daily demands before discussing suitable care. Different people with the same condition may need different approaches.
