Anyone out there know where I can get two new feet? ‘Cause mine are messed up. Turns out I have Morton’s Neuroma which obviously is doctor speak for pain that feels like a nail being driven into my feet! 
I’ve tried a couple of things like getting a cortisone injection in my left foot (which helped some) and wearing metatarsal pads to help alleviate the pressure in the area. But those pads don’t work on longer distances, in the rain or when I sweat a lot because the pads slip.
So my friend Larry has suggested Spenco shoe inserts (www.spenco.com). So I’ve researched those and have order the Polysorb insert that you can custom make with a heat gun. If that doesn’t work, looks like I may be scheduling surgery later this year to have the nerve removed.
So for now, I’m mixing up my active lifestyle with 4 spin classes/week that I teach, and this weekend I will be doing probably a 50- or 60-mile ride, kayaking and geocaching, which is my newest hobby.
Hi Wendy,
We have several mutual friends–I saw your post on Terri’s Facebook page. I have suffered from various foot problems over the years and cycling seems the least abusive sport to my feet. I have some Polysorb orthotics and they work well, but I have not heat molded them. You can also try Lynco orthotics (better IMO). They have a metatarsal support. You can also place a metatarsal support under your orthotics–use the felt pads with a sticky side and trim for comfort. On the bike, spinning at a higher cadence works for me.
