But I haven't had the terrible pain, I had 30 years' back, even with my other foot issues. Back then it was CONSIDERABLE.

So my feet have taken a beating over the years, and now I consider myself lucky to be where I am now, pain wise. I have done hundreds of hours of research on the net over the last decade and I share my experience here and what I have learned as well.
