Good evening @2pyelady42
Thanks so much for your post. I see you have been a Connect member for almost a year.
I also love my HOKA "sneakers". The arch is quite high and I need that. The shoes are comfortable and make me feel stable. I have pretty wide feet so I ended up with a man's shoe to get a comfortable width. I got these for my post-TKR exercise. They also work well walking along my meditation path at the Mississippi.

Would you be able to share with me the cause of your painful toes? Do you use medication or a topical application?

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
Chris

Chris,
I was recently diagnosed with PsA. Psoriatic arthritis. It has destroyed much of the cartiledge in my toes and it is traveling thru my body. I am supposed to start Cimzia injections soon. The actual psoriasis is in my ears. This is all a new auto immune disease in addition to fibro and osteo arth. and many other issues. Just have to keep plugging away. But the pain gets so that I have to lie down alot. That doesn't even help much. I have tried two other meds but they didn't agree with me. I might try cbd salve as it help me while waiting for a total reverse shoulder replacement. I was allergic to all the things in the replacement part so had to wait for something else to be manufactured. I couldn't have waiting without the salve for pain.
I had no rotator cuff left.
What is TKR?
Your walking path sounds lovely.

Lovely talking with you. I hope you are able to have relief.
HOKA shoes are like walking on a cloud. I bought mine wider and 1/2 size larger.
