When did my world start to revolve around my feet? When did every decision I make start with and end with my feet???

When did every trip out of my house make me question how will my feet do and what are the conditions of my surrounding??

Things are drastically different from 1 year ago. Because the answer to all those questions are about 6 months ago. 1 year ago I did not think twice about those things.

Now, every environment effects my decision. What will the temperature be? As temps have everything to do with my feet.

Every year I go to Florida for the month of Jan or Feb and stay with my mom. I was thinking about going by myself this month for just a couple weeks which means flying instead of driving.

Flying presents a dilema. I can't take my chi machine, which has brought amazing comfort to me, without it my flares are wayyy worse. And how do I deal with flares on a plane? Since I am not on any pain meds I must use my own devices. Will they say anything when I try to take a water bottle through the airport, lol? A simple water bottle brings great relief when they are burning.

The list is endless for what if...even enjoying the daily walks and strolls along the beach is not barely an option if its above 70.

My husband, bless him, is also trying to learn and wrap his head around my every move being consumed with my feet and how my life is revolved around it. Many times I choose to stay home rather than brave leaving my comfort zone to go out. I am 46 yrs old what does my future hold if this gets worse since it seems pretty isolated now???

Sorry. Generally I am pretty positive but lately, I am coming to terms with how much my life has changed in 1 year and where it's going. I am not ready to get on drugs yet since I feel that day will come but not now, not yet, too many side effects and issues for me personally.

Hubby has several trips he wants me to go on this year, he has a bussiness trip to Vegas...trips scare me now...it takes me out of my comfort zone.

The word recluse is fast becoming a part of my thought process.

Do any of you find yourself staying home in your comfort zone just to avoid problems?
