Apologies if this is the wrong place for this.

Does anyone have this or know anyone with this?

I think after a chat with my podiatrist and assessing the symptoms online that this might explain my problems. I have booked an appointment with my doctor but will be another couple of weeks.

Would be great to talk to someone in the meantime.

Thanks

Me! Well, probably. Never been formally diagnosed and tbh don't intend to as I don't think that would achieve anything apart from put an unhelpful label in me.

I'm 41 and it's not limited my life at all apart from the fact that I'm not good at running. Fortunately I'm not one if those people that this matters to ... I do get a bit embarrassed by my feet eg at the swimming pool and have some problems getting shoes that fit well - oh and I can't wear heels. But, overall, not the end of the world and I don't really think things have got worse over the last ten/twenty years or whatever.

If you want to pm me, that would be good, would be great to chat about this as I don't know anyone else with this either!
