[QUOTE="GlorifiedLackey, post: 1465383, member: 55091"] I'm sorry you have to go through this. I had chronic plantar fasciitis. I had 3 foot surgeries the past 4 summers. This past summer was the first time I wasn't laid up. One of my many podiatrists thought I also had "Over-Pronation". (just a side note.....I have high arches, which were starting to fall). He recommended surgery to fix the Plantar Fasciitis, done laproscopically.....and he was going to put a pin in my ankle to "fix" the overpronation. It was called the [B][COLOR=#ff0000]"[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(255, 0, 0)][SIZE=3]Hy-Pro Cure". [/SIZE][/COLOR][/B][SIZE=4][COLOR=#000000] It was an implant in the talo tarsal (or something like that). A few months after the surgery, I could barely walk! Doc wanted to remove the pin. I suggested trying physical therapy. It helped. Anyway, the following summer the fasciia grew back together; so I had an "open plantar fasciotomy" (2nd Podiatrist and 2nd opinion). Short story long, I think the "Hy-Pro Cure" was doing what it was supposed to do; but my foot just wasn't adapting to it and it was causing pain. I ended up this year having the "Hy-Pro Cure" implant removed. My foot is much better now. I think when it's done in younger children, it can be beneficial. But for a 40 something year old lady, that has been walking incorrectly, compensating for years of foot pain, it just wasn't for me. I hope that helps. Please feel free to private message me with any questions. Good luck. I hope everything turns out well.[/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
