Oh, My Aching Feet---Are Gone

When I read Reader's Digest's article, "I am Joe's Foot."  II was a youth.  I am guessing it was in the 70's, but if someone knows when let me know.  I remember trying some of their suggestions for dealing with aching feet and caring because my feet often ached.

 

As I sat holding my daughter's foot tonight, and considered how incredibly  it was made, I suddenly realized my feet don't ache anymore.  My feet often ached over the years.  As a child, there was an empty chair at the table and yours truly would put her feet up on them.  Nobody else could put their feet on the chair but me!  I never could understand that one, but I appreciated it.  A couple of years back a person at the shoe store told me that my feet swell and recede.  She could tell by looking at the wear in my shoes.  I remember the ache being particularly bad in the summer time. 

 

But hey It's summer and my feet don't ache this year!  When I went gluten free about 18 months back, my feet first ached really bad and I had plantar fashieitis  pain in both of them.  Then all went quiet in my feet.  What feet? I asked the nurse  recently when she asked how they were.

My feet used to swell terribly. Even though I keep my sneakers so loose I can barely tie them because the laces are too short from keeping them loose, by the end of the day they were tight and I couldn't wait to get them off. That improved a lot, but lately it has come back. That is why I am giving up dairy for a while. I KNOW I am not getting glutened or corned or soyed, so what else could it be?

My dreadful plantar fasciitis vanished within weeks of going gluten-free, and reappears if I get glutened. Isn't it great when you don't notice things are better, then suddenly realize? I noticed last week that my jaw doesn't click anymore. Great!!!

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.
