I have noticed when I wear my lace up steel toed boots the pins and needles on the ball of my foot is worse. Last week I had a weird numbish shooting sensation on the very low part of my lower back. In the past I have had a bad habit of popping my back, neck, and knees, so I don't know if that could have either caused or worsened another condition.

The other day waiting in a checkout line for an extended period I had on thin flat slip on shoes and I could feel shooting sensations going from the ball of my feet upward through my ankle.

As far as the food before bed goes. My family doesn't know what "healthy eating" is. They cook anything and everything out of boxes and just quick threw together stuff. My finals are next week so I don't have a lot of free time at the moment, but as soon as they're over I'm going to do mass amounts of research about healthy eating, and start implementing a healthy diet.
