Foot up

Everyday living
#1

hi everyone, I have been wearing my foot up for a few weeks now. When I am wearing (most of the time) it I definately feel more 'sure footed', but when I take it off (really only for shower, bed etc) I now feel very wobbly, and the side of my foot aches. I mentioned this to my physio who just said it was beacause it was making me use muscles that hadn't been used for ages. I am not seeing the physio again,  but this aching seems to be getting worse. Has anyone else had this when using a foot up?

Hi Lynne. I get the same (aching muscles), when using “FES”, its now been more than two years with the FES but it doesn’t get any better. In my case, I think it’s a matter of grin and bear it unfortunately. crying2

 

Take care.
