Foot Neuroma? help, please...

[Miranda]

As I was geeking out Sidi Mens Mega width shoes on this board thinking surely I can't be the only woman in the world to possibly need them, I came across something called Morton's Neuroma...

OK, have you ever been so messed up for SO LONG a certain way that you don't even think it's "not normal" anymore? Well, I'm starting to think my issues go beyound my Sidis and pedals, I think it's my feet.

I have what I think are the symptoms of this condition, but my feet also do something really weird on top of it. I don't know if this means my issue could be something other than the m-neuroma.

The second and third toe pull straight up in a cramp like they were attached with strings like a puppet show doll. Omg, it hurts SO bad. It can travel up my leg too. It's really hard to straighten the disfigurement out when it does it. In the cycling shoe miles out is really bad.

Rightie is more of the problem child. But both feet have a thickened bump thing in the ball of my foot about under second and third toe. The ball of the foot goes to sleep. Then this cramping thing starts. And worse next, the toes mentioned draw themselves up in a very gross disfigured painful manner.

I'm praying my insurance might pay for a foot doctor, AND I can get an appointment before the year turns over to meet a new deductible. But gheez...

I have a Sidi shoe store of wider stuff, I ordered the yellow cycling SuperFeet, and now I'm thinking I need one of these met bump thingys I read about. EDIT: Just got in recent orders, not tried yet, btw.

Google and the search here gave me some info. But I didn't know about the toes drawing up. If you know of the thread, or different word to google, let me know too. Thanks!
