Suggest Treatment For Severe Discomfort In The Feet
Hi, my name is Gwen. I ve been having problem with my feet for almost 1 year. Therefore, I ve seen 3 different doctors. Although, they all have came up with several different diagnoses. First, plantar feshiitis, tendonitis, peripheral nerve, and/ or inflammation because I suffer from fibromyalgia. Medicaid does not pay for me to see a Podiatrist. So, I am taking Gabapentin 300 mgs a pill at night. I can barely walk on my feet due to the discomfort. I need serious help! What do you suggest?
