good to hear!

Glad to hear of your progress. I have had minor PF for about 1 1/2 years, and more severe PF for about 6 months. The PF was aggravated by doing TaeKwonDo (which I loved, but my feet didn't!). Since stopping all exercise, I have gained weight and wish desperately to lose some. Recently I got a bike, and have also been starting very slowly. I haven't been able to do it every day, but want to ride about 10 minutes a day if possible. (I have a baby on the back, plus a preschooler on training wheels who rides with me, so the pace is very slow.) My goal is to one day have feet that can go dancing again...but I think that that will be a looooong ways away!

Ibuprofen cream instead of pills because of the stomach irritation high doses of pills can cause. This is the only place in the U.S. I've found that sells it.
