*hugs* Kallie you're so sweet to look after me like that. I was
diagnosed with it, by my wonderful doc, and prescribed inserts to try at

helped! The pain is hardly there any more. He also gave me some
stretches to do for it that were great. I just remember how
debilitating it was...
How are you feeling, anyhow?
