Since then, and two surgeries to remove "suspected" neuromas from my crummy feet. I live in a world of numb feet. I was told I would get used to it. To the contrary, I think about it constantly. Maybe, because the result of the surgery left me feet in just as much pain as preop pain. I went from stabbing, bunched up sock pain....to aching, numb bunched up sock pain. My life turned on a dime. Weight gain....depression....even though treated with meds. Doctor shopping...to the point of almost insane. Pain goes up and down like an elevator. But....what can one do? Just have to try and coexist with this little daily reminder of....my feet aren't what they used to be.
