When I started experiencing severe pain in my feet that progressed to my mid thighs, I had no idea what was the cause. For 4 years I spent 10s of thousands of dollars seeing one specialist after another for help. Some doctors told me it was in my head (you have to be kidding me - who would make this up?) or there was nothing that could be done except offer me drugs that had very dangerous side affects. My condition had progressed to the point where I could not wear shoes for more than 2 hours and I packed my feet in ice most of the time trying to numb the pain. I could not sleep - even the bed...
