So Happy & feeling empowered for the first time in ages! Today I met my Physio, she rocks!! No talk of what I can still do! We talked about my frustrations about everything I have had to give up. She has empowered me! I have been given a sports brace for my foot drop so I can try and walk further again. I am signed up for a 6 week exercise class designed to get my balance and fitness back. Sooooo Happy despite being full of cold. I can’t tell you how much it means to me. Wanted to share some positivity for a change.
Physio/exercise is one of the very few things that can improve this pesky condition, but it’s not a quick fix and does involve a fair amount of dedication. Regular work on your core strength should help with balance issues and is a good place to start.
I find an fes greatly helps dropped foot problems and might be worth asking about.
great news, i had a 6 week course with my neuro physio,she taught me pilates exercises to build up my core strength, i do them every other day when i can,and they do help me.
