hi Ellie
about 10 years ago I suddenly started getting intense foot pain that just came and went inexpicably...so bad sometimes I couldnt walk
I had acupuncture and reflexology/foot massage for it, along with a daily foot soak in warm water with epsom salts dissolved in it (1 cup to about 2 gallons hot water)
the foot pain was gone within about a month and has never returned.
still dont know exactly what caused it but I was sure relieved to see it go
hope maybe that can lead you to some relief for yours
ok....scurrying back to the kitchen to continue the feast preparation
hope you get some time off your feet today!
