I need a transplant of ....... You choose

16 Replies

Hey all. I've had a down day today not in a psychological way but I have spent some time on a few times down on the floor today. Oops I did it again but not on the stairs this time. (Caused by blooming foot drop) I've struggled to see the bright amusing side of it all today so I think I need a humour transplant. Or even a foot transplant or just some lighthearted humour and support from my friends here on NRAS. Lol xx

Hi carol. Thank you I have an ossi foot up which is ok but not brill I also have a shelf stock pre made AFO which is crappy as it rubs my ankle red raw I'm awaiting a custom moulded AFO which I am told will be good and help. I have nerve entrapment at the fibular head so hopefully it can be released ASAP. Which at least gets me towards recovery xxx

I kept tripping over my foot after developing foot drop, but by the time I got to see the consultant, I had learnt to "step high" and put my foot down flat on the ground, not with my toes trailing down. I look a bit funny lurching around and my steps sound as if I'm slapping the foot down, but who cares.

I was lucky to be able to work on the muscles higher up and get them to keep pulling up my toes - if they are affected as well, you are not so lucky.

keep cheerful!

 I have foot drop too caused by nerves in my spine being trapped. It sarted out as sciatica. Having a spinal decompression operation in a couple of weeks don't know if it will help with foot drop. I get around the house by using my wheelchair, a lot more useful than a walking frame. I really embrassed my daughter in John Lewis last week by getting out of my wheelchair and pushing it round the shoe department. My daughter was in the changing rooms at the time when a couple of ladies came in laughing & saying they thought that only happened in Little Britain! My yougest grandson calls me Macka Packa, a character from The Night Garden, and nothing will make he go back to calling me Nan. As long as we can laugh at our selves we can get through anything..........well all most anything
