Does anyone have shoe recommendations?

Since my diagnosis I've fallen 3 times, breaking my ankle, tearing tendons and ligaments in my leg and shattering my humerus. Does anyone have any shoe recommendations for stability when walking around in everyday life? Does anyone find things like splints or AFOs are helpful?

Hi @LaurKay I’ve purchase shoes from https://cadense.co.uk They are stable and have been designed to aid with foot drop. I should also note they are PRICEY but can be helpful. I also use a ‘PUSH Brace’ AFO as advised by physio and orthotics. Thankfully, the shoes work with the AFO.

It’s mad—I interviewed a bloke for a job the other day and he was wearing inflatable wooden shoes. Asked where the new guy was the next morning… apparently he’d popped his clogs. 😂
