@summertime4 I have had two Morton neuromas removed.., back in 2012. Still hurt, but not as bad after surgery. It took a while to heal... about 6 months. Last year the same foot started hurting as before with the neuromas. I had an MRI done and it showed a small neuroma. I had gone to a new foot doctor because I had so many injections and they did nothing for the pain. This doctor suggested physical therapy. The first therapist really did not know how to do foot therapy. She knew who did and he is a man that has helped me get through other pains. He is constantly educating himself. He did several types of massages with some torture instruments. He also did another technique, but I have no idea what it is called. It helped tremendously. He used some pins... much like acupuncture needles and hooked a tens machine to them. That was a year ago. I am beginning to have some more pain and may soon go back for more PT. They told me it would need repeating. I will try anything not to have surgery again. Being off my feet for so long was torture.
I too have an abundance of pain throughout my body.
