I have to take pain medication in order to get over the worst of it and get moving, but once I do I can honestly say the most pain-free part of every day is the hour or so I spend walking in the woods. I feel like I coud stay out there all day some days, and even on days where lifting my feet is tiring it is still the best part of the day.

When the pain is particularly bad, I pace up and down, around the house. I think there is something about weight bearing that quiets the nerve pain.
