It is hard to explain. I just do not have the strength, balance, and confidence of before. If I used those poles (or even a cane), I would draw too much attention from some of the dangerous people who prowl the streets looking for weak victims. Thank you for your kindness.

If you use Nordic poles, you will look athletic not weak! It is a fitness walking workout not just casual stroll.

@jimbo12 A cane could become a pretty handy defensive weapon....

Me too. Though off Lupron for 18 months & now 78 YO.
Thought I was OK enough so took a "Tour of Europe" last Sept.
Hard to keep up with the group and huge crowds always jostling us.
Trekking poles came in handy to deflect ppl from us and let me see enough of the pavement (bricks or cobbles, usually) to not trip and fall.
Didn't feel weird. Just in charge 🙂
Happy 'hiking' and full recovery from SE's
