Trying an AFO
Hi Guys
Well for the past week i have been trying an AFO, and it's been a success, i find i'm walking straighter, better balanced, and getting my affected leg through without scrapping the toes, my own GP could not understand why the hospital physio didn't get me one ages ago. I know that the hospital doctor had recommended one but it never eventuated, It has I still get drop foot went i don't use it but once it's on i find the drop foot does't happen. For safety my wife still walks behind me for safety but it won't be long before i'm up and away. With the warm whether now my affected leg is keeping a good temperature as during winter it was like a block of ice. i hope to go solo soon and get some of my independance back. and get back out in the garden and do some chores. So fingures crossed my New Year resolution will come true,
Once i get the walking down pat i can concentrate on getting the arm working properly again.
Well back to the grindstone and get my physio done.
