So, I went to the podriatrist this week and he said I can assume all normal activities. I am not back at 100% but am feeling much better. All my symptoms are that of a neuroma which never goes away-my luck! The symptoms my go away and I may never feel again-let's hope. It is an inflammed nerve but I don't understand if the inflammation goes down won't it just be a nerve again? Then some websites call it a benign tumor so in that respect I can see it never going away. I will continue my stretching and exercises. I am trying to run 3-4 times a week with deep water running on Fridays. I have a half marathon in 4 weeks? That is practice for the one on 3/22...I want to see how bad it is going to be =) I will have to take a ice bath after and hope I have a speedy recovery. I am planning just slow and steady and walk if I have to. Tomorrow is suppose to be almost 60 so I am aiming for a long run. I will probably have to go by myself on the C&O so I will go out probably only two miles each way so I am not far from the car. Trying to get in a few slow miles on the treadmill today before I go see Avery!! I think I am just burnt out from not doing anything for almost a month and work is stressful.
