Hi! I have been suffering with PF for a few years but didn't really know what it was until about a year ago when I went to see a podiatrist. I went through all of the classic treatments anti-inflammation drugs. tapings, and then cortisone shots. The shots really did help me but not for more than 30 days or so at a time. My doctor believes that most people will get better by rest and the anti-inflammation pills. I did not fall into that catagory unforunately! Over the years at work mostly I have talked to many people who suffered from PF at some time in their lives many attest to the fact that they did get better and haven't had a problem again. Some people say that their PF problem comes and goes over the years. Rarely did I come across someone who has had to go for surgery which is what I did. On Jan. 22 1999 I had an endoscopic fasciotomy I am hoping for great results. I am on my feet all day long at work and need to be ok, I have alot of years ahead of me in the workforce. But as to answer your question I beleive from talking to many people that I am not in the majority and most people do get beeter at some point. Feel free to e-mail me if you would like. Best of luck in you treatment.
