A little setback

So I was doing really well walking and then I started getting some really bad leg and heel pain. The heel pain has been going on for a little while, but it wasn't too bad and after I rested I was fine. Well, after I started walking and then worked the next two days, I could hardly move my legs. I had been thinking about getting some new shoes and heard about a place close that will actually fit you for shoes after watching you walk. I ended up going there on Thursday. It turns out that I've done more damage than I thought. I am supposed to wear my shoes from the time I get out of bed until the time I go back to bed. I also have to lay off walking until my legs are better. I only worked a 6 hour shift yesterday and didn't think I was going to make it through. I rested the remainder of the day and am resting all day today. Hopefully I'll be able to make it through tomorrow at work. Then I'm off for three days.

Just for the record, I hate wearing shoes. This is going to be a challenge. But, if it will keep me away from the doctor for a little while, then I guess it's worth it. I really want to try to get this to resolve on its own. I've found a few exercises that I'm going to start doing and my shoes are right by my bed so I can put them on as soon as I get up. So, that's what's going on. Until next time, cjb
