I don't know if this is of any help but I have to wear my socks inside out so
the seems don't rub on my feet. I also wear mule type shoes so the back don't
rub on my heels and both shoes and sock need to fit firmly.
They still cause pain but it seems to me to be less than going without them.
hugs

Well here is my two cents.... The nerve damage is so bad in my feet I can't
wear shoes or socks.. so this time of the year everyone in public will stop to
tell me "It's cold you should have shoes on" DUH!! as for the
Anti-depresents.. they were given to me to the "nerve damage" and does not seem
to help (Cymbalta) but at this point with TM I will try anything..

I am happy to have people that understand what it is like to be in pain
24/7. And now, with the winter setting in, just walking in the cold is hard
enough, never mind the winter boots and the weight they add. And the snow –
doesn’t seem like much, but it sure adds to the discomfort. Right Neil?
And as for the anti-depressants. Do they really work? Mine don’t seem to
be helping. Either that or I just need another vacation.

I totally agree with all the comments. I also know that if we didn't have
this list to be able to communicate with about our feelings and "vent"
occasionally, we would be a lot harder to live with, and not as well off
mentally. Then again, my anti-depressants help a lot too, lol.
Once in awhile I retreat into my shell and hibernate, usually in the winter
when the pain levels increase, and the family isn't really happy that I don't
care to do much outside of the house. It's just not fun going shopping or
visiting if you aren't comfortable or good company, and easier to be inside my
warm cocoon.
Take care all, and keep warm. Hugs, Barbara A
