As you guys know I have had plantar fasciitis for about 2 years now so here is my venting on the the history of treatment:
- First Podiatrist: I saw told me to take Advil and gave me cortisome shots then it came back in 4 weeks and same thing rest, take advil. Check - unsuccessful
- Second Podiatrist: Verteran guy but gave it to me straight 2cortisome injections, customized insets and rest. Check, Not better suggessted the surgery of cutting the muscle and that is my last option!
- Third Podiatrist: Started with the ESWT surgey & Cobalation first time no success, second time with the ESWT we added the platelet injection but it is a little better but nada.
Although I have never been thin, I have always been active in my life from playing sports when I was young through high school and I have continued to work out through my twenties and thirties excluding the last two years. It is not for weight loss but for overall health plus it really is a stress reliever for me. God what I wouldn't give to be able to run without worring if I would be able to walk in the morning.
Now what to do! Now he thinks I have nerve damage in my foot so I am going for an MRI in the next few weeks to see if that really is nerve damage. This has been such a frustrating process and I feel like the current dr is how bout we try this.
So everyone keep their fingers crossed that it is not nerve damage and it just magically heals next week.
I am so done with this!!!
P.S. Since I am going to start to look for non-impact exercises has anyone tried a swimming program that they recommend? I am not really that interested in swimming but I have got to get back in it to win it.
Good luck sista! You have had the worst dang luck with your footsies. I think about you every time I feel a twinge of pull in my foot.
ReplyDeleteWhat about spin class with spin/cycle shoes (and your inserts of course)? Is that too much of an impact?
Dude I just noticed that you really only have 39 things to accomplish before your 40..........#23 and #33 are the same.....learn to meditate. Soooooo you have one more thing you are supposed to do before you turn 40........what shall it be?????
