I hear you and can relate. I take a bit more meds than I would like to
if I want to get out of bed. I have severe pain in my left hip and leg
and both of my heels. I used to be a figure skater and walked 4 miles
every day. I just want to do that again. Im sick of the weight gain
and sick of being a lump in pain.

Ive tried so many different things. Casts, cortisone shots, nerve block,
boots, night splints, gel pads, heel cups, custom orthodics, pt, ice
and heat. The only thing that gives me some relief is my combo of
meds. I take zanaflex, percacet, gabapentin and ultram. We are
going to try lyrica so Im dosing down with the gabapentin. I HATE
taking all these meds but I HAVE to have some quality of life.

I sit here with a hot pack on my hip and dream about getting up
and moving.........
