YES !!!!!! Meeeeee!! I was on tamoxifen for 9 mos and one day I felt like I had small golf balls on balls of foot. I can’t wear heels any more or walk barefoot in my apt. Went to podiatrist and he diagnosed me with metatarsalgia , finally after too many side effects , dr took me off. We might try something new in January I am still in pain

Unfortunately yes. I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis 3 yrs. ago and still have it today. I did get some relief from taping for a period. I did all the exercises and even got the injections which lasted about 6 months. I took endocrine therapies for quite a few years, over 10. Interestingly this started as well as a few other annoying issues after I quit taking it. I always like to say, “I am still here to complain about it”.
Have any of you tried anything, that seemed to help? Has anyone tried any shoe inserts?

Oh sorry to hear that and hope it gets better now that you're taking a med break. I guess I will get a podiatrist appointment since my home remedies aren't cutting it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
