I went to the PT today and he worked me over pretty good. It looks like I have a nuroma but he wants to treat it to see if we can knock it out with the physical therapy as apposed to surgery... I am NOT hip to surgery, so I will do the PT therapy and I even get to do some pool running starting Friday. I have to say that it has been less painful today since my first treatment this morning, so I am hoping that it is a good sign of healing for the future. I just hope my darn insurance will pay for it cuz if it doesn't I probably won't go, funds are pretty tight right now;( I will update after Friday and let you know how it goes. We have decided to go to St. George anyway, who knows depending on how the next few weeks go I might even give it a try;)

See ya Friday.

Really? Try it?

Clyde, Are you trying to tell me to not be stupid that I shouldn't try it?;) I think I might be cheering on my fellow bloggers as apposed to actually running it, but you never know.

Hey Clay-did you know Marion deals with nueromas? She hasn't mentioned surgery as a possiblity, though. Perhaps you can talk to her about how she's worked with them.

Surgery is very successful but I hate the idea of it, I'll for sure send her a note and pick her brain to see if there's something more I can be doing.
