I am also a runner but have put that on hold for now. I'm worried it will make my foot pain worse afterwards.

I'm planning to go to the gym tomorrow to go on the stepper. It's less impact on the feet and legs. Last time I used it was for half an hour 3 weeks ago. When I came off I had tingling and numbness in one foot for ages afterwards. I don't know if I dare attempt any of the weight machines. I'll get too depressed if it sets off more symptoms.
I've had a relatively normal couple of days recently (due I'm sure to a great deal of physical inactivity), but I don't want to turn into a hermit. (It's my birthday tomorrow so I have to go out!).

I am undiagnosed at the moment, so I should have more of an open mind, but with all the reading I've done about the different types, causes and symptoms of PN, both on this forum and elsewhere, I have too many of the symptoms for it to be anything else.
Meanwhile, I'm taking as much advice as I can from all the supportive members on this forum...
