Learn to live with it. Sounds to me like your feet aren't the only thing that's totally screwed up, I suggest your doctor is a little bit screwy too. That's the kind of comment made by people who jump out of bed and run 5 miles barefoot on concrete and think nothing of it. Oh, if you could give someone PF for a week, or even a day, how different their attitude would be.
I can't tell for sure, are you glad you didn't have PF surgery or are you wishing that you had? Get a copy of your bone scan and if possible try another doctor. I know, you've crapped out on four, but sometimes you just have to keep searching until you find someone who will work with you. Wish I had some better ideas, maybe someone else can help. Keep us informed regardless,we care.
