@kekimmel Thanks. I'll look into it. What problem do you have? Is it some kind of neuropathy? My balance is becoming progressively worse over time due to neuropathy.

Please tell me what extern braces I are as have never heard of them. And, are they very helpful for my daily walking (balance etc). I do have problems with my balance and I use a cane and walker now for getting around.
Thank you in advance for informing me about those braces.

I have had a balance problem for years and was diagnosed with Meniere's. I can't walk a straight line. If I start feeling disoriented or dizzy, taking decongestants can help. At least one dr. called it a "gait problem." These braces are interesting but how can I evaluate whether they would help with my type of balance problem? I have had some some nerve conduction studies but no one has mentioned neuropathy.
