Well today I went for a physio appt, the problem being that I have got something called plantar fasciitis - basically in laymans terms the muscle that supports the arch in my foot has collapsed. I just got up one morning and couldnt even put my foot on the floor - no swelling or redness or anything - anyway I left it a couple of days thinking I had just pulled a muscle and that it would correct itself. How wrong could I be!? Eventually I went to the doctors who gave me some stroong anti-inflamatries which have done no good whatsoever and then 2 months later I have been seen, which goven how longyou can wait for an outpatients appointment I really cant complain about. Anyway I now have a painful knee, calf and hip because I have spent two months walking on the outside of my foot! I know have to stretch the muscles with some exercises and go back next week but she thinks I will need surgery as apparently this normally corrects itself within a couple of weeks and the fact it hasnt means its probably not going to. On the plus side, this is something thats common amongst athletes so I must be mega fit right!!! Oh if only you knew me!! Nothing could be further from the truth!
