Do I have to see the physiotherapist

I was referred to the physiotherapist when I was diagnosed to discuss the foot drop. After the first meeting I didn’t find the session helpful at all. I postponed the last meeting then opted to not go. I feel really bad for not wanting to go but I don’t feel like it’s any help

I found thr physio not great either but what they can do is refer you for an AFO (great help with foot drop) & a walking stick. (Perhaps not needed just now but good to have prescribed 😉)

I’ve had mixed results with physios. The best I’ve seen got me working on my foot drop with exercises incorporating NMES/FES eltrical stimulation that I feel has helped.
