Need advice - options after AFOs

[Guest guest]

I've started having trouble walking. It's been getting worse all

summer. Can't seem to pick up my feet even with my AFOs and knee

braces on. The more I wear the braces the weaker my legs become and

they are starting not to help anyway. I don't want to use a wheelchair

but leaning on a grocery cart at the store helps a lot.

What are some of the options out there after AFOs? I'm leaning on my husband so

much when we go for our evening walks it's starting to hurt him & he's a

muscular guy. HA! HA! I don't think a cane would help. Maybe a walker on

wheels...does anyone else use one of those?

I'm going to see my doc in a few weeks at the MDA & was wondering what he might

suggest or what I might suggest to him? Oh and yes I'm exercising & in physical

therapy too. Thanks for listening.
