Stance control orthosis- Does anyone use one? Pros and cons, please.

Posted , 2 users are following.

In two weeks I have a session with my orthotist. Should I agree to him providing an SCO?

I think I need a new KAFO because I have lost muscle from my thigh. I have recently had muscle strength tests which show that my hip extensor is weak (level 2). Any help, experience or opinion would be appreciated.
