Re:Sorry for posting, about MY problem

[Guest guest]

Hi Tawny

I'm really glad you posted about your toes I've had the disease 15 years

and my toes are starting to be affected now - deformed, bunions etc. I have

had to start wearing boring 'sensible shoes' now (forever) and oh the

horror!!

After having had a hip replacement you'd think that bad toes would be a

doddle, but no - maybe it's because us gals love our shoes?!

Thanks for the post,

in NZ (aka Bunion foot)

Thanks for understanding, we do love our shoes! I use to wear high

heels, wedges, and have my sandals in the summer. I usually wear flip-

flops around the house. Hey, my puppies love them,lol I do find

shoes without the backs are best for me. They have some cute ones. I

have huge bunions, and I guess that is related to RA. My joints are

huge! My knuckles are also so big in the two joints, so they look

kind of funny. The last time I saw my rheumy, she asked how I was. I

get tired of saying, the same old routine, so I said, " ok " she then

asked why my hands look so big. My elbow is now going out on me. I

can't even lift a glass, so another thing to worry about. Oh well,

were still going, slowly but moving. You take care, and I wish you

some good days, Tawny(Hey, another bunion foot here,lol)

a, I know what you mean. I use to have the biggest platform

shoes, I have no idea how I wore them,lol Tawny

[Guest guest]

a,

I'm the same way. You can't really wear dresses when you have no

shoes to wear. Then, you see everyone on TV wearing heels. It's just

a rude awakening how things change. It is hard to find a nice pair of

shoes. I love boots too, and know way I can get into those nice heel

boots. Oh well, Tawny

I wish Liz Claiborn would make some arthritic shoes for just us gals!

I love sandals. My feet almost feel free to do their roaming. Of

course toes one direction, foot in the other and spilling over the

sides now.

Sue,

Yes, dresses do look nice with sandals. It's really hard for me to

wear sandals. I will check out Walmart next time. I've bought so

many shoes, then I usually can't wear them. Tawny

a,

LOL, that is a thought! I love those baby doll dress, so cute! You

have a great evening, Tawny

Sue,

I will check, they have a BIG sell out, and I might just find a pair.

I had two funerals to go to last month, and I had to wear my

uncomfortable shoes. I'm sure very comfty for normal feet, but not

mine. Enjoy your evening, Tawny
