I tried the Bioness L300 today. On my right leg that has the drop foot.

It works, and it was very comfortable. I liked it. The guy told me where to go to try the Walkaide tho, so I'm going to call there and see what I have to do to try that.

The only thing about the Bioness that bothered me, was that I now know that some of the walking issues that I've been having are coming from my OTHER LEG.

I went walking around their little track area, and while my right leg seemed to be doing fine with the Bioness on it, the left leg kept throwing me off. The guy told me my leg was scissoring and trying to cross in front of my other leg. It was really really <bad swear word> annoying.

It was also pointed out to me that both of my knees are hyperextending.

So, while I liked how the Bioness worked and felt, I was really kind of disturbed that it seems my other leg is having issues, and the problems in that leg seem to be coming from higher up the leg. (where the leg meets the hip)

Kind of depressed about that now. I just don't know what they would do to help that.

I am kind of hoping that all this stuff is coming from being somewhat low on the b12. I know I shouldn't put any hope into that. It's kind of not realistic to hope that a little b12 will help things get better. Because apparently nothing ever gets better. Stuff only gets worse.
