Nightmare PT (long, sorry)

[Selkie]

It's odd that neither the PT nor the doctor recommended taping. You ladies aren't the first to suggest it, though!

Since I'm improving, I'll forego it. However, if the urge to take a real walk overcomes me, I'll try taping.

I had plantar fasciitis some years ago. It was quite excruciating, especially when I would wake up in the morning or after sitting for awhile. I don't want to sound like an advertisement, but I went to The Good Feet store and got some orthotics and put them in my shoes. No walking barefoot, no slippers, no sandals. After a few weeks the pain went away. I wore them for a year or so and now as long as the shoe that I have has some arch support, I am fine. I sent some friends there, and they all got better. One friend had custom orthotics, but these worked better. One thing about custom orthotics is that they don't fit in all shoes. These are thin plastic and fit in most shoes, even dress shoes, so you don't skip wearing them. They cost less than custom, too. So, I did not do all the PT and massage and I got better. This is the website to see if there is a store near you. http://www.goodfeet.com/locations/ Hope you get better!
