@bajjerfan Quietriver here, You might try finding someone in your area that make and impression of your feet and a arothics that fit in your shoes with the cushioning where you need it most built in. make a world of different sin your comfort when walkings. I have a friend who's toes are at a 45 degree angle to the foot and with them in her shoes she has no problem at all. except for a two year readjustment.

It isn't my feet or shoes that make walking difficult. It's when I start walking that the muscle/s in my right side below the top of my pelvic bone and down to part way down my glute on the right side start to tighten up and cause me to bend forward somewhat. I can feel the pain and tightness along my lower back and part way up both sides of my spine. I have a spot at the top of my pelvic bone that sometimes feels inflamed on its owk or when exercising or when lying on my back on a hard or soft surface. I suppose I could have another try with a muscle relaxant, but i feel tired a lot as it is and they would just exacerbate the problem. For me Metaxalone/Skelaxin is the preferred MR. I tried 800mg once a day, but didn't notice much. That's another that's best gotten from Mark Cuban's Low Cost Drugs, esp. the 800mg size which can easily be cut in half.
