look into shockwave therapy. my roommate works with foot and ankle docs quite a bit. this shockwave therapy is done in office and shoots holes in the tendon causing u pain. supposed to work very well

I did that for a month with zero results. We have tried everything. If this doesn't work they are going to go in and cut each side of my heel and stretch the tendon out and lock it back in place. I'm hoping this works. I've been dealing with this for months now and it is painful just walking to the bathroom!

I know guys that got it in the hell and the skin is tough there so i've been told they have to DRIVE the needle in and it is a killer!

PF sucks bad. Mainly because it carries your weight and you basically are crippled at times with the thing.

Thanks for the support guys. Needles don't bother me but this trip tomm. has me a little nervous!

they will use a thicker gauge needle, but you will not really know about it since the skin will be numb from the initial numbing agent

Thanks Tony! I hope you're right!

i took that same shot......i have shots in the spine (4x), shoulders (many times), ankle, heel, elbow, knee......by far the back is the most painful.....the pain and pressure shoots down your legs since there is so much fluid in the spine anyways, so they have to ease it in.....

i wish you well....but most procedures i have had the anticipation has been worse than the event itself.....

Had that treatment about three years ago. WELL worth the pain of the treatment to be able to walk without pain afterwards. Doc also put me in some 40.00 insoles that I still wear and swear by today. Good luck with treatment and hope yours is as successful as mine was. Oh yeah and the pop when the needle goes through the heel skin is unbelievable. Grit your teeth. GOOD LUCK!!
