@notborntoburn Thank you for sharing with me. What prompted surgery for the Morton neuroma? What had you tried before surgery was done? This is new to me. All this time this is what I had which was causing the awful pain. I don't understand why no one picked up on it even after an MRI was done. However every symptom is here. My first visit with podiatrist was 1 1/2 weeks ago. He did want to do a shot but I just couldn't subject myself to that pain. He put me on the 5 day med pack and within 2 days the swelling was done and much of the pain. I was also recommended for better shoes that I did not have to squeeze my feet into which will also help with neuropathy. I have been done with the med pack for 4 days and have some swelling a pain. Not as intense and I am treating it with ice. I did not expect for it to disappear after inflamming this foot for over 8 months. I was doing everything I should not have been doing with this issue. It may take surgery sooner than it would have if it would have been treated earlier. How long were you treated before surgery was done and why would the doctor say you didn't follow directions and just leave you. He should still work with you. Sounds like a cop out to me. Can you give me some info from beginning of your journey with these neuromas to now? Thank you.
