Hi thank You for your reply.. Post plantar fasciotomy I had relief from the heel pain. Fast forward to today the numbness n tingling is going down to right lower leg and right foot. Some pain on top of left foot and medial right side of left foot. Along with debilitating lumbar pain. I saw a surgeon at Mayo .. looks like I’m having aL4L5 fusion MI TLIF in November, the spine surgeon feels strong that I may see majority of relief from lumbar pain ( where I can’t stand for 7 min minutes) n the foot issues.
This is going try be a long process I’ll take one day at a time. The surgeons can not guarantee back pain relief.
