Personal journey with bilateral plantar fasciitis surgery
I saw my surgeon again last Monday since this flareup has lasted over a month now. It turns out that the pain I am having in both feet (I had bilateral plantar fasciotomy’s just over a year and a half ago) is right where the plantar fascia is still attached. Where it was released is [...]
I started this blog to share my personal experience with plantar fasciitis, the resulting surgery (partial release plantar fasciotomy), and my recovery from the surgery.
It was just over two years ago that I seriously considered having surgery on my feet after no other treatment worked and after enduring the intense pain of plantar fasciitis for [...]
When I started thinking about having surgery for my plantar fasciitis I spent hours researching online. I could only find one personal experience with plantar fasciotomy and it hadn't been updated in a long time.
So I thought I'd chronicle my journey from beginning to end and post updates as time goes on as to how well the surgeries worked for me. I'll be having two - one surgery for each foot. I have bilateral plantar fasciitis.
I also created this blog so that my family, friends, associates and clients could easily check my progress and chat with me during recovery.
So if you're visiting this blog way after I've had surgery, I hope the information you find here helps. If you're one of my family members, friends, associates or clients, I hope you'll post lots of comments because your support will keep me going strong through post-op recovery.
Regardless of when you stop by, I'm glad you're here!
