Re: My experience with this horrible problem

I've had this problem for 15 years. I have had ultra-souund treatments and parrafin compresses (which feel lovely for a few hours), orthapedic shoes. The first thing I found that really helped(don't laugh) was Reebok runners. As I was teaching at the time, they saved my sanity and my job. Lately I have been using night splints for an hour or so before bed. These splints maintain the foot in a "neutral" position and my pain has diminished by 30%. They also prevent the spasms and jerks that the accompaning tendonitis has caused. Good luck.
