Well, I have now got my insoles. Unfortunately, they do not fit half my shoes but are ok in my boots. Many of my shoes have arch supports anyway so the arch support on the insoles is just too bulky. I must admit they do help though with the pain in my feet. The other thing is they do "draw" the feet and I end up with swollen feet and ankles and feeling very hot.

I just need something to prevent the pain on the balls of the feet where the bones have dropped.

Himself says to persevere and the Podiatrist said the same thing - to use them and build up gradually from one or two hours a day to full time.

If no improvement think I will have to ring him and see if they could be made thinner.

I don't know why they always assume that our feet are wider than they are. Nothing seems to be made to fit ladies shoes which are much narrower and not as deep as mens.

Will carry on and see how I go with them. LavendarLady x
