I've been experiencing SEVERE pain in my heels for 3 months now. I cannot take one step without excruciating pain. It feels like knives going through both of my heels. No one took me serously at first, not even my doctor. It's come to sometimes, I crawl on my knees because the pain is too great in my feet. My doc finally told me today that I may have PF. He wants me to wear inserts and heel cups for one week, and then he'll do x-rays. I don't know how I'll even get through this week. I cry through the pain, try to limp, hobble, hold on to things while I walk, anything I can just to get from one place to another. I have to keep working, and take care of my 2 year old. Any suggestions to get me through this hard time? Any recommendations on shoes? Shoe inserts? Heel cups? Creams? Pain relievers? Anything at all.....I'm just so glad ya'll are here, and I"m not going crazy, or being dramatic. Thank God I can tell my husband something when he gets home today. That I really am in pain for a reason, not just being dramatic!
