Default Cause of foot drop?
Just was diagnosed yesterday, but no one seems to be able to figure out the cause of my foot drop. Any ideas?

Picture your central nervous system as a wiring harness. The brain sends a signal for voluntary muscles to move, but the insulation around the wiring harness is being destroyed or damaged. So mixed or no signals?
