Hi friends,

I'd like to here your thoughts on an idea that has been on my mind the past few days. Being that my Docs and specialists are yet to find a cause for my pain, I'm clutching at straws.

I recently remembered that as a young girl, (40 years ago), I spent many hours climbing onto a back yard shed, via a fence, only to jump off it. I was practicing to be Supergirl. This went on for years. In addition, I was doing gymnastics, so my feet took quite the pounding. Each time I jumped off the shed the landing hurt my feet. I remember the pain was very much like what I feel today, a strong stinging sensation. It used to really hurt, but a few minutes later I'd recover and climb up again. No, I was not insane. Just so desperately wanted to be Supergirl.

I'm wondering if I injured my feet so badly back then, the damage remaining hidden until recently. Do you think this is possible, or is 40 years too long?
