RE:Pain in Feet/regeneration?

[Guest guest]

Cathy;

I too had this pain which led me (in a round about

way) to diagnosis of CMT in the first place. My hands

had hurt for years and I assumed for ten years or more

it was arthritis but when If finally started getting

simular pain in tops of my feet it made me wonder. . .

and it seemed to come and go. . . I found out that is

when my arches (severely high at the time) were

starting to fall due to muscle wasting in the feet and

tendons drawing due to no meaty areas in my feet

keeping things stretched out. So, I got severe pain

and at times very hot feelings and then sometimes even

swelling for no apparent reason. I found it relieved

it most to soak in hot epson salt waater and stay off

my feet as much as possible. . but even that after a

while didn't relieve it. I did find that getting

inserts in my AFO's helped to keep better support and

more comfort as well as made my ankles more stable.

Good luck; instead of regeneration I felt mine was

progression. Hugs. . Libby
