FES

I had an assessment today and came home with a functional electrical stimulator!! Being electrocuted with every step is not the most pleasant experience but i am sure i will get used to it It certainly helps with the foot drop and as long as i dont end up in isolation it should help me get out and about more. Any tips and advice from anyone who uses one would be good…thanks Karen.

Hi Karen, you’ll get used to the feeling of it and, after a while, won’t even notice the sensation, just the fact that you’re not tripping over your own feet! Enjoy.

There is plenty of information on the Odstock site and the FAQ’s is good place to start.

Thank you
