There are 'functional' and 'supportive' tendon transfers that can significantly help with drop foot. Having MS may be a contraindication for a 'functional' transfer, but the muscle groups will have to be evaluated by your physician/surgeon. But a STATT (Split Tibialis Anterior Tendon Transfer) procedure may work in people with severe motor deficiency. It would be best for you to discuss this with a qualified Podiatrist in your area who is trained in reconstructive rearfoot/ankle surgery.
