Default Got my NEW BRACES TODAY~

So I picked up my new braces today (Ankle Foot Orthotics) and bounce around and walk much taller.

I love them so much I think I'll wear them to bed.

Well, we'll see. My specialist who fit them suggested I get special Physical Therapy just for these braces.

So I will try to set that up with the therapist he recommended.

Onwards and upwards!

Hugs, ElaineD

Profound PN since 2008 or earlier.

Great news (as I said on the Sjogren's forum--lol). Hoping these work out for you! I think PT for the braces would be a good idea.

I have one of these for each leg. I'm still not up and about as much as I could be.

I think I've gotten used to sitting in my recliner and watching the world go by!

I need to be up and 'rocking"!
