I'm with you when in pain, I...You crack me up. I'm with you when in pain, I'll believe and try just about anything before a race. Most recently the podiatrist had me under his spell. He told me my self-diagnosed plantar fasciitis was actually neuromas. After ultra sounds on both feet he injected me in 6 spots with a b-12, alcohol, something else concoction. He said I would be up and running that night. <br /><br />After the painful shots, I could barely stand. I ran the next morning just because he said I could, but my feet hurt like hell. It's been two weeks today, and while I've been running since the day after the shots, I must admit, I'm in more pain from the shots than I was from my "PF."<br /><br />He said he could cure me for life. I'm still waiting. <br /><br />On a more positive note, I took the bike out for a 25 mile ride on Sunday. I went with some folks who "know what they are doing." It was a humbling, ass kicking experience. At least I got them in the pool on Tuesday. <br /><br />CarolynCarolynnoreply@blogger.com
