Re: A further question in relation to foot pain and Fibromyalgia-

Are any of your foot issues related to the fibro?

You mentioned that your orthotics are hard. What kind of foot

do you have: high arch, low arch, etc? How long have you been

trying to use your orthotics?

I have been told and have read that Plantar Faciitis is very common in people

with Fibro.

Hi Kristy

I've orthotics for years and they were fine until I started having pain in my

legs and feet. I am not sure if the pain is due to the neuropathy or the fibro.

All I know is my feet and ankles HURT by the end of the day.

I have almost flat feet - not quite but not much of an arch. Never have had

that. The orthotics were to take the pressure off the heels so the heel spurs

(or I guess it's really PF?) don't hurt - and originally that's what it did and

it worked great.

But now - they are just too hard for me and they kill me. I just can't do them

anymore.

1. While it is wonderful to share our experiences with everyone on the list as

to what treatments do and don't work for us, pls always check with your dr. Some

treatments are dangerous when given along with other meds as well as to certain

health conditions or just dangerous in general.

2. If you are in a difficult situation (doesn't matter what it is) pls don't be

afraid to ask for help. It is the first step to trying to make that situation

better.

3. To unsubscribe the e-mail is:

Fibromyalgia_Support_Group-unsubscribe

4. Also, it is not uncommon for more than one member to be feeling bad at the

same time when it comes to flares and b/c of that potentially take something

another member says the wrong way. And that includes the things that one member

may find funny (even if it's laughing at fibro itself) even though we who deal

with illness whether one such as fibro or multiple illnesses try to keep a sense

of humor.

5. Pls let's be gentle with each other, and if you are having a bad day pls let

us know so that we can do our best to offer our support.

Have a nice day everyone.
