I too have problems with shoes, my feet are always swollen, and it will vary in severity. There are days when I can't wear any shoes as even the comfy big orthopedic shoes will be way too narrow for me. The problem is, I need shoes for stability. Put your feet up (higher than your heart), that will help, especially if you do that overnight.

Right now, due to the Calcitonin, the swelling has gone down. As soon as that med can be stopped, however, the swelling will be right back.
