Has anybody been prescribed leg braces both ankle or ankle and knee to help with your MS and what circumstances drove this decision that you would be better wearing them?

I have them for both legs. They are for my drop foot to help me to keep from falling because of my toes not lifting up and to help me to not stumble because of not picking up my toes also. I aso have them because of hyper extending my knees.
