I haven't even heard of those shoes but I have had experience with heel spurs. I was having a devil of a time with one and called for an appointment to see the doc and maybe an injection. In the meantime I did something to throw out my back and I had generic Flexeril and Lodine ordered for the back. I guess the generic Lodine was stronger than my Aleve I was trying until I got some help for the heel. Well the Lodine I got for my back has nearly taken away all my heel pain. Now I don't know what the heel will feel like when I'm off the Lodine but I'm enjoying it now.
