Lianne: Hi. I'm VERY concerned about you - it sounds like you have had PF for a short time only, and that you may not have a severe case YET! I strongly advise against ignoring the recommendations to stretch, ice, and REST. I know you don't want to hear this, but you might have to take some time off from work to nip this problem in the bud. I was too busy to take care of myself, too, at the beginning, and have regretted it ever since. I spent the summer in a wheelchair, and just had surgery on one foot, and will need it on the other one, too. I just kept exercising and ignoring the pain at the beginning when it was still manageable. Please, do whatever you can NOW to prevent this from becoming a long-term chronic, and very disabling problem. It is nothing to be taken lightly.
I wish you the best of luck. Please be careful!! Cindy
