Giving up AFOs

Hi all,

I have been wearing one AFO for left foot drop for almost two years. I have

been to three different othotists and the one I am wearing still does not land

my foot on the floor the right way, sooooo I am considering just going back to

not wearing one beacuse I feel it really weakened my leg and foot. I have even

taken notes on it and made an appt. with the orthotist that made the one I am

using to try and describe to him how it feels. I know it is hard to convey to

someone else what CMT does to our legs and feet, but either he can fix it or I

just won't wear it.

Has anyone else given up their AFOs? I am 59 and never before had one or even

knew what they were. Thanks for listening. Elaine
