| Had a back injury a few years ago and part of the injury was foot drop in my left leg/foot. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone consider nerve transfer surgery? The brace that I have to use really sucks. |
| Yeah, I tried a lot of things over the years with nothing making a real difference. I recently got tested for a device called the walk aid which is a type of electo stim but it didn't work for me, the nerve in my left leg that brinks your toes up when you walk is dead. |
| My foot is okay, but after hip replacement my quad muscles and knee doesn't work. I searched high and low for a doctor interested in some type of femoral nerve repair and eventually gave up. If you aren't rich and/or famous then they expect you to deal with the hand you're dealt I guess. |
