Foot Pain...

[Guest guest]

Hi I am new...my name is and I am 44. I am relatively healthy, no major

health concerns aned not taking any meds for quite some time. I have been having

terrible pain in the bones on the top of my feet, you know the long ones. It

hurts way down onto the sides also and in that sort of delitcate area just under

that little ankle bump on the outside. It has gotten so bad that sometimes

after sitting for a little while when I get up to walk I feel as though if I

walk to quickly those bones will snap, and like someone has just hit them with a

hammer or something. I don't know if this sounds like arthritus to any of

you...haven't gone to a doc yet since I currently don't have decent insurance

and I'm putting it off I guess.

What I am hoping is that someone here can offer some ideas, suggestions or

whatever to give me an idea of what direction to go with this. I also have the

same kind of pain in my lower back and of course my knees but my knees have had

quite a few surgeries to them...

I had an Aunt who had moderate RA and her mother as well. I'm sure I do have

some arthritus in my knees because of all of the past injuries and surgeries

done one them to repair the damage but the rest is just proving to be miserable

for me since I also have 3 year old twins to chase after all the time.

Any help, advice or infomation would be really appreciated.

Thanks!
