Does everyone who is suffering from MS have Foot Drop or is it like everything with the disease some have it and some not?
Although I haven't been diagnosed yet, I do have what I think is foot drop, when I walk I seem to put my whole foot down on the floor at once and when I walk bare-foot on the kitchen tiles I make a sort of a slapping noise.

Foot drop for me has always been my toes dropping down and dragging when I walk. The toes of my shoes are always scuffed or worn-out. Foot drop was the first symptom I can recall in hindsight. I ignored it because I had thought that I was simply being clumsy.... I know people with MS who have never had foot drop.
