Trudy,
We still have three puppies left but I am headed to a local pet shop today hoping to send more on their journey of life. They are so cute and funny to watch. They just play, play and play. They really have been a joy but they're growing way too fast and I want their new families to enjoy this time with them so it's off to the pet store.
About the UTI, it dawned on me that this is the third year in a row that I've had one this time of the year. I normally do really well not having to deal with them much but something is changing with me I guess. Still drinking lots of water and ye ole cranberry juice which has been my routine for over 30 years but I have still gotten sick at least once a year during March or early April. Last years bout and this one hit fast and hard. And I have developed a strange trembling when I first get sick. When I say trembling it is really almost a violent shaking. My muscles are still sore from the last episode. But alas, I am much better today.

Kevin,
I checked out your link and dicovered the one at http://www.activeforever.com/pc-992-5-motorized-oxycycle-pedal-exerciser.aspx is $60.00 cheaper for the same machine. I think the shipping is only about $20.00 I tried have a recumbent bike and discovered that is too hard to use for me also, but it made a great clothes rack in the back bedroom, much better than the rowing machine.
Larry in Oklahoma where I have been down with a UTI from H&#@ for two days.

Larry,
I just found this on Amazon: Life Gear, Motorized Oxycycle
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000LZJ6G8/ref=nosim/?tag=dealtime-hpc-20&creative=380333&creativeASIN=B000LZJ6G8&linkCode=asn
I think ebay has the same thing for less money.
On Amazon it states: "It may not be suitable for people who are quadriplegic or paraplegic. Please consult your doctor or physician "
I have a recumbent bike that is too hard to use. I'm just wondering what problem this small exerciser might cause.
I'm thinking of getting one.

Frank or others,It was recently suggested to me that I try using a exerciser similar to an electric bicycle for at least daily or more if possible to stimulate the blood flow and will reduce leg swelling. Does this sound reasonable? This apparatus cost around $100.00 You sit on a chair and pedal along with the electric motor. I used one years ago after knee surgery for passive muscle stimulation. So what do you think?
Larry in Oklahoma who only has three puppies left.
