Lodine XL seems to be helping!

Posted by Angie on 1/24/99
Hi everyone, I saw my family physician last Friday and he did an xray to confirm that I do have a heel spur already. He commended me on buying the Birks and recommended orthotics for other shoes. I think I'll order the Birks blue ones that everyone talks about. I have the Medera sandles with straps and they are great, but my toes get a little cold in this Kansas winter -- even with socks on! I want to order a closed Birk shoe -- has anyone tried them?

Anyway, I started on Lodine XL (etodolac extended release) 500 mg. Two in the morning. I didn't notice much difference Friday but yesterday and today the pain is significantly less. So Birks and Lodine are helping the pain. My question is (and I didn't think to ask him) -- does that spur ever go away on it's own?

I am so glad I found this message board. You have all been a great source of information and comfort.
