Hi, I think the first thing you need to do is find another doctor, either an orthopeidic or podiatrist with experience in rx pt with heel pain. It seems the first thing they would try would be physical therapy, ultrasound and hydrotherapy and teach you the proper stretching exersices you will need now and in the future. Its a life long commitment to the stretching. The doc you choose should be placing you on prescription strength anti-inflamatories to reduce the inflamation in the heels also. If they find the fascitis is caused from a physical deformaty like pronation, flat or high arches they will recommend orthotics as well. You have to take charge of your health.So please find a doc that will help. There is help out there
