Having most ny vertebrae fused, I lost running ten years ago. I concentrate on walking, but lost that to gait disturbance. My cycling went by the wayside due to balance issues. I even tried using my hands to 'pedal' my exercise bike from the front.Not a real option. My option for aerobic exercise was lap swimming. Not my favorite exercise, having nearly drowning twice, but I got better at it after several years. Now I can do a mile in the locale aquatic center, year around. Since my legs were worthless in the pool, they dropped and impeded swimming. My physical therapist recommended a float device between my legs. What a relief! Keep on plugging!

You’re definitely an inspiration! I’m sorry you’ve struggled so, but I’m glad that you have found an exercise regimen that works for you. Indeed, “keep on plugging” is a motto I keep close to hand!
