Unhappy

My pain is always worse at night.

I don't understand this either. I can wake up and have no pain at certain times, but at other times my feet may start up again.

It has been alot better with the warmer weather this year.

I am having more trouble with my left ankle, tho. That seems to be my challenge now. It swells during the day, just enough to feel tight and any pressure on it in bed seems to flare it up.
So I have a soft pillow to put it on if I lie on my side. I've had a magnet on it for over a week now, right over the back part where that medial nerve curves around. This is my surgical foot, and the one with the toxic spider bite from several years ago. It is also the place where the stupid foot doctor (I don't go to him anymore!) stuck a needle to numb my ankle pain from the spider bite.
