Second time with foot drop

On 3/7 I was drinking heavily and passed out for a couple hours and woke up on my knees, leaning against my coffee table. I then had rt. Foot drop. I thought I hurt me peronal nerve, but after having one of those electric nerve tests where they touch you with a pin, they concluded it was coming from the lower back. They never bothered checking that area, just the knee down to the toes and said those nerves were fine. Anyway, I started seeing improvement in about a week. When i saw the doc I was 3 weeks into it and about 30% improved. After another 3 weeks I was about 90% and after about 8 weeks I was 100%. Thank GOD!!   Well, yesterday, my dumb drunk ass passed out and woke up sitting on sofa, not in a weird position or anything , with left foot drop. I can’t believe this is happening again!!  I Pray it gets better like first time, although this one feels a little worse. Last time I was able to move side to side, but this time I can’t. Tomorrow I see neurologist again. I’ll keep you all informed.   Anthony
