As I write this, my foot is soaking in a bowl of ice water.
My foot. Aren't those toenails cute? |
The treatment: a cortisone shot that nearly sent me jumping out of the chair, soaking my foot in ice water for 20 minutes twice a day, massage, stretching, medication, and arch supports ($60 not cover by insurance by the way).
I've known about the Plantar Fasciitis for a long time but the Heelspur is new. Hopefully the treatment will work and I can walk without almost constant pain.
The rest of the weekend was pretty good. Dinner at Sizzler. I love their salad bar. A movie at home. Reading. Laundry. Cleaning the car. Relaxing. A little productivity and a little down time - all in good balance.

Oh OUCH! That hurts. I so help the injection helps, heel spurs can be sooo painful. Sounds like a nice weekend. We haven't been to a Sizzler in years but I did used to like their salad bar too. P.S. Come clean my car.
Your weekend sounds so peaceful and productive--minus the foot thing. That doesn't sound fun but I'm glad you're getting some relief. I hate pain. Insurance covers less and less for me now.
