Hi Maria,
My pm doc also says i have a neurological problem where i do not sense the ground . I notice when i am walking just barefoot how the toes turn into claws. Now they are permanently in that position. Once the nerve block wore off on Monday night it did hurt enough to take pain meds. Also on tuesday , but after that it only hurts when i try to walk!!! I am trying to use only my heel and i only went downstairs once yesterday to make coffee. Other than that ,it does not hurt at all just sitting here or laying here. I know i am allowed to walk around the house now, but can't really do anything so why bother. Standing today making breakfast my left side of my back started hurting with my lopsidedness. So i won't be doing too much of that!!

I'm glad you found a place to purchase. Do you have a moving date or closing date? That is very exciting. Hope you can get your feet straightened out too. (no pun intended)
