I have a complete left foot drop and have a lot of titanium in my back!  I’ve seen various foot support devices. Can you please recommend one? Preferably that would fit with a shoe etc

  Welcome to the community @guydickinson Thank you for joining!
  
  Are you looking for an Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) device?

  Thanks. Yes - something like https://www.shoeinsoles.co.uk/TO4302CMSX.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw46CVBhB1EiwAgy6M4mV10m-K-Xm5ULz-mtTJOf7-6WIa4jyheKAoMPiSvLyBcdU2dXLLNxoC6xIQAvD_BwE
  can that realistically slip under one’s foot in a shoe?

  I don't use them myself @guydickinson, so I can't offer a recommendation, but Chloe wrote a blog post about finding suitable shoes for AFO splints that you might find helpful
