The seat swivels 360 degrees and tilts in the direction I lean which helps me keep my equilibrium. My weight problem is that there's not enough; my doctor says I should weigh 120; I slipped to 98 as of last week. My checkup is set for the 27th - I know she's gonna fuss. I also have a heavy duty metal wagon on pneumatic tires. |
