I have tried Motrin, temporary orthotics, numerous heel cups, purchased 2 pair of New Balance running shoes (over $100 per pair), custom orthotics, physical therapy, night splints, constant stretching exercises, icing constantly, etc. etc. etc. I have not had the cortisone shots as there is not one specific place in my heels that hurt - it's the entire heel. Additionally, as it has been going on for so long, my knees are becoming involved also.

If anyone has any other suggestions that have worked for them, I would greatly appreciate it - The pain is overwhelming and is just making my life miserable! I have a 9 year old daughter who needs her Mom to do stuff with her, and I just can't . . .

Thanks, Sue
