Thanks Brian, for reminding me...
 

of the magnets. Remember last year or so when we had that long thread on OBT before their crash? I bought some monster large magnets from a computer geek place...for like a buck each. And tried them on my painful leg.

They were soooo strong they made the nerves buzz in my legs so I just put them away.

Well my feet have been killing me (really) since Weds, and even tho I did NOT like the shoe inserts and had no results with them, I dug out my magnets --the mega big ones (slightly larger than a quarter--neodymium) and taped one on each
foot on the "top" this time. The pain was gone in 10minutes. So I have been wearing them all day today, and still I feel 100% better.

These are so much stronger than my little neos.. I had given them up because of the buzzing. They don't cause the buzzing at all on my feet.
I feel pretty :o that I never tried them this way!

They are really strong...can't get them apart if they get stuck together!
And I had totally forgotten about them!

I am so glad you got relief Mrs D ... and yeah i do remember that old thread on BT, I believe they get them out of old hardrives, i haven't tried that myself though.
The trick in getting 2 apart is to not to try to pull them apart but to hold the bottom one very firmly and slide [with your thumbs] the top one off, but some are tricky and really need the strength of a man.
