Podiatrist procedure made it worse?

Mine started almost 7 years ago as pins & needles, and a sensitivity to first socks, then shoes and has progressed to enough pain that I had to stop working last year.
They don't know what caused it, and there's nothing I can do... but one thing I would do, knowing now what I do:
I would travel to every item on my bucket list, walk the english fields and see the sights of the world... because I sure can't do that now.

@stevebern—I hope you can revise your bucket list, and look at several of the travel sites for those of us with disabilities. Travel is still possible, even with pain, and a diminished mobility. If a wheelchair will make it possible, roll on! Just a thought that I am working on for me and my husband for the future.

Mine started at about the same time with RLS symptoms (diagnosed w/ neuropathy 6 years ago). Calf muscles twitching, hideous calf/foot cramps wrecking my sleep every night. Solution I read on neuropathy sites: "be sure to eat well & get 8 hours of sleep". It would be funny if it wasn't so cruel.
