I rejected surgury immediately. Surgury has a place but is highly specialized and should normally be a last resort.

Lizzie, I once had a plantar wart on the heal that was half the size of a golf ball. After giving up entirely in consciously attacking it I threw away all my shoes but one pair, took a nap and woke up 90 minutes later with no mass on the heel whatsoever. Even though my day job was a hypnotherapist, I was astonished. All I did differently that day was to give up. Go figure.


To correct any exaggerations:

Subjectively the difference feels like night and day.
However restoring function does not mean that all associated pain is gone. Its been 5 months since I have been off crutches and 3 months off a cane.Some pain remains but is less sharp.
I am able to walk more 'reliably' without any feelins of disclocation since treatment on Monday. There is also less pain simply from lying down or turning over.
There is a clear possiblility that I can go jogging soon.
