Dear all,
I've been researching ankle exoskeletons, because my ankles are weakened and an ankle exoskeleton would give me much needed bracing/support and drastically improve my general mobility.
Better than a traditional AFO.
One I found is called the ExoSym, and I saw it demonstrated beautifully. I may have to talk to my insurance provider and find out if they'd cover it.
Without the coverage,pricing could get pretty hefty. I used to be embarrassed if I had to wear a brace or anything, but not these days. I'm all for anything that can improve my mobility and general quality of life.

Sounds good...I will have to look that one up. My right ankle gives me fits sometimes and definitely weak. Thank you for the information

Even though they are no doubt expensive, insurances have really surprised me lately in what they cover. I remember when getting Botox for migraines was unheard of for Medicaid to pay for. Now, they pay for it every three months with no trouble. And that costs a lot per visit.
