Helen, I just want you to know that I know how you feel. I tell people I can't go that because of PF then they go, well you look fine. But they aren't there in the middle of the night when you hobble to the bathroom. I have found that wearing Leather sneakers that are very frim and tied tight really help, along with Birkenstock sandals (they definately are a lifesaver). I have had PF for about 8 months and i am trying to get back into excercise. it is like a catch 22 because the doctor said to lose weight, but the only way to lose weight is cardiovascular excercise and walking or running just isnt possible with PF. I walk on the treadmill everyother day and then come home and wear my birkenstocks all day, i have little or no pain the next day! Keep up with this message board, it has provided me with a lot more information than my doctor gave me. Good luck.
