Three podiatrists and two Orthopedic surgeons haven't been able to help me. I've tried all the non-invasive treatments. None of my docs will give me shots. My pain is atypical for PF-mostly in the arch area, and not severe in the morning but terrible as the day wears on. Next week I'm scheduled to see a physiatrist (rehab specailist). I think he's going to run an EMG on me. My sumptoms started 4 years ago after two heavy days of running. I have always thought that I tore something (tendon?). At any rate, last week the pain finally got the best of me and I decided to give total rest a try. I'm in a wheelchair. Good news is that the inflamation has gone way down and the pain has decreased too, although it's still there. Has anyone else tried total rest? If so, please share your experience.
