I had surgery 8 days ago on my left foot. Fortunately I do not have this same problem in my right foot. As a teacher, I'm on my feet all day, so I'm not looking forward to my return to the cement floors. I hope and pray this surgery helps! Thanks again! Thank you, Christina, for sharing your story.

You may find that you'll question your decision often - I know that I did. I just held onto the hope that recovery isn't quick and I'll eventually benefit from the pain of surgery and recovery. It sure hasn't been easy for me. Patience is surely a virtue. :) One of the things I have found MOST important, aside from staying positive, is to keep doing the exercises. Those stretches will make a world of difference. It's even more important for you since you work on cement. I handle cement flooring best when I have consistently been stretching morning and night. It doesn't take long to do the stretches and doing them twice a day is a foot saver. :) It's been great to look back over the past year and see how I've improved. I'm hopeful that you'll be in my shoes a year from now glad that you had the surgery and seeing great improvement! You’re welcome, Patty!

I had my surgery on the 15th of December after three years of going through all the more conservative steps. As I could not sleep, I thought I would search out some info online and found you. I'm glad to see someone is happy that they took the step to surgery - I have definitely been questioning whether I did the right thing. I work on a concrete floor at least eight hours every day so I am also nervous about returning to work, but time will tell. Keep up the good work and I hope things keep getting better for the both of us! Patty Hi Christina

I'm glad, Missy! You made my day. :) I'm headed to Muir Woods with a couple of friends. I'm sure it will be even better than my last trip. I'll post after the weekend seeing how we're going to San Francisco. Have a great weekend!! Yay! I’m glad, Missy! You made my day. :) I’m headed to Muir Woods with a couple of friends.
